IMHO removing one rock in the glaciated area of Wisconsin has no serious environmental impacts. It is common to find large granite boulders like this during excavation for construction. They are often broken up with explosives for removal. The term for this rock was very common when I was growing up in the fifties and I am sure it is part of the local vernacular.. As a boy, I helped remove boulders from fields. We called them "f__________" rocks.
