WQAW Capitol Day - 2019 

Be Our Guest for WQAW Capitol Day!

Water quality issues are at the forefront of the Wisconsin Legislature.
Governor Evers has declared 2019 the “Year of Clean Drinking Water” and earmarked $72 million to water issues. Legislation has been introduced in the Assembly and Senate to allocate up to $10 million toward well remediation. The DNR is working on an administrative rule that streamlines well construction and eliminates DNR approval prior to installing bacteria treatment on a well.  And finally, a 15-member water quality task force has been created in the Legislature to make recommendations based on all options. 

Now, more than ever, WQAW needs to weigh in with the Legislature. 
We need to educate.  We need to offer solutions.  We need to be involved.  There’s a saying in politics, “If you’re not at the table, you’re on the menu”.  Our industry needs to be at the table on these issues. Lawmakers are not experts in water treatment and we can’t assume they will include our technologies as solutions.  On April 10th, you will have the opportunity to share your knowledge and expertise with the decision makers at the State Capitol.  


It’s so important that everyone in our industry attends that we have waived the registration fee—it’s completely free to attend! 

Specific meetings for each attendee will be arranged with your State Representative and Senator.  In addition, a list of scheduled meeting will be provided if you would like to attend additional meetings.
