What does it mean if a PCA exists on my property?

If one or more PCAs exist on your property, you will need to ensure that any future construction, landscaping, or land alteration activities comply with the PCA protective standards and permit requirements in your local MRCCA zoning regulations. See the MRCCA ordinance for local restrictions or the DNR's page for an overview.
