WHAT: Water pollution, quality and quantity are serious concerns across the state. Many people are personally impacted by these issues. If you have concerns about your water resources - for example discharges from industry or sewage treatment plants and CAFOs, contaminates in municipal drinking water supplies or the role of the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources in managing those resources, join us at a listening session with the US EPA Region V Administrator Robert Kaplan.
