GROUND
WATER: RESOURCES AND REGULATIONS: 2002 Project web sites
As part of the requirements for the graduate groundwater course during Fall 2002, two teams of students researched separate topics of current regional interest and developed web sites to present their findings. One team investigated Arsenic in Groundwater, a topic of real concern in the Fox River Valley and in other places such as Bangladesh and Africa. The other team looked into Aquifer Storage and Recovery, a politically sensitive issue locally involving the City of Green Bay, the surrounding suburbs, and the State of Wisconsin. The web pages are not carefully maintained or regularly updated but are presented here for a limited time as examples of graduate student class projects that might be of interest and value. |
The
Wisconsin Water Policies Inventory (WWPI) is an overview of primary State
policies related to water. “Policies” include laws, rules, or agency guidance
documents that set goals for the future and influence the current use,
management and condition of water in the State of Wisconsin. UW Madison.
