Any violation of these standards is hereby declared a nuisance. The minimum standard shall be as follows:

(2) Vibration. The following vibrations are prohibited:
(a) Any vibration discernible (beyond the property line) to the human sense of feeling for 3 minutes' or more duration in any 1 hour; or
(b) Any vibration resulting in any combination of amplitudes and frequencies beyond "safe" range of the most current standards of the United States Bureau of Mines on any structure.
(3) Toxic or noxious matter. Any use shall be so operated as not to discharge, across the boundaries of the lot or through percolation into the atmosphere or the subsoil beyond the boundaries of the lot wherein the use is located, toxic or noxious matter in such concentration as to be detrimental to or endanger the public health, safety, comfort, or welfare, or cause injury or damage to property or business.
(4) Air pollution. Any use shall be so operated as to control the emission of smoke or particulate matter to the degree that it is not detrimental to or shall endanger the public health, safety, comfort, or general welfare.
(5) Animals. Any building in which domestic farm animals are kept shall be a minimum distance of 100 feet from all lot lines (see § 159.083).
(B) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the minimum standards established by the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency for noise, glare, and air and water pollution shall be the minimum standards adopted for this section.
