Wetland Resources

December 2007 Mailbox -- Wisconsin Wetlands

A wealth of information about Wisconsin’s wetlands and links to other resources can be found on the state Department of Natural Resources (DNR) website and sites maintained by various associations, including the Nature Conservancy and the Wisconsin Wetlands Association. The Legislative Audit Bureau Report 07-06, An Evaluation: Wetland Regulatory Programs, is available in both pdf and HTML format. The survey data was released by the Nature Conservancy at: htttp://www.nature.org/wherewework/northamerica/states/wisconsin/files/stew_poll_summ.pdf). The congressional quote can be found (with minor variations) on several web sites, including a DNR publication at: http://www.dnr.state.wi.us/org/water/fhp/wetlands/resman.shtml
