Come learn about a new initiative - Healthy Watersheds, High-Quality Waters (https://dnr.wisconsin.gov/topic/SurfaceWater/HQW.html) - a partnership effort to protect Wisconsin's wonderful waters and our way of life. Not only is Wisconsin blessed with a landscape filled with water resources, but those lakes, rivers, streams, and wetlands also provide tremendous public health, recreation, and economic benefits. Now is the time to protect water resources and the values they provide us.
Healthy Watersheds, High-Quality Waters is a first step towards greater balance between restoration and protection. The overall goal is to keep 100% of the priority healthy watersheds and high-quality waters within them at or better than their current conditions through 2030. We will share modeling and assessment results, geographic priorities, partner feedback and the action plan formulated from it, and discuss ways we can work together to protect these resources for future generations to enjoy.
