To accomplish this purpose, a minimum of one test per three acres shall be made initially. The results of such tests shall be submitted along with the preliminary plat.

All elevations shall be based upon mean sea level North American Vertical Datum of NAVD 88(2012), and plans and profiles shall meet the approval of the Village Engineer.
The Plan Commission, upon recommendation of the Village Engineer, shall require that borings and soundings be made in specified areas to ascertain subsurface soil, rock and water conditions, including depth to bedrock and depth to groundwater table. Where the subdivision will not be served by public sanitary sewer service, the provisions of Ch. SPS 383, Wis. Adm. Code, shall be complied with, and the appropriate data submitted with the preliminary plat.
The subdivider shall provide soil erosion and sedimentation control plans and specifications. Such plans shall generally follow the guidelines and standards set forth in the publications USDA Conservation Technical Guide, prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture, and the Wisconsin Construction Site Best Management Practices Handbook, prepared by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources, as amended.
For properties proposed to be divided by certified survey map or subdivision plat or developed as a condominium and that contain natural resource features as described in this chapter, a natural resource protection plan, as described in Article IV, shall be submitted for review by the Village Planner and Plan Commission.
The surveyor preparing the preliminary plat shall certify on the face of the plat that it is a correct representation of all existing land divisions and features and that he has fully complied with the provisions of this chapter.
