The area shall be measured from the outer edges of the regularly used buildings, parking lots, storage or processing areas of the industrial activity and not from the property lines of the parcels upon which such activities are located. Measurements shall be along or parallel to the edge of the main traveled way of the highway. The following shall not be considered industrial activities:
(1) Agricultural, forestry, grazing, farming and related activities, including, but not limited to, wayside fresh produce stands;
(2) Transient or temporary activities;
(3) Railroad tracks and minor sidings;
(4) Signs;
(5) Activities more than three hundred feet from the nearest edge of the right of way;
