1. A Class IV-General approval shall be valid for two consecutive years following the date of issuance unless a longer time period has been established through an associated approval (e.g., preliminary plat approval, Conditional Use Permit, etc.) in which case the time limits applicable to the associated approval shall apply.

2. A COHP shall be valid for a period of two years unless a longer period of time is established for the associated forest practices permit or approval issued by DNR in which case the time limits applicable to the DNR permit or approval shall apply. If, however, a forest practices permit is not approved by DNR and executed by the landowner within two years of the approval of the COHP, the COHP shall become null and void.
