WAMS ID REPLACED BY MYWISCONSIN ID

On June 13, 2025, the Wisconsin Access Management System (WAMS) login platform used to apply for CWFP and SDWLP financial assistance switched to a new login system called MyWisconsin ID.

Attention: Any users who have a WAMS account will be required to create a MyWisconsin ID account with a user ID and password.

Read about the switch in the Environmental Loans' December 2024 Newsletter, May 2025 bulletin, and June 2025 bulletin.

The timeline in this message only applies to the Environmental Loans Online Systems. Note that State agencies and programs are migrating to MyWisconsin ID at different times between now and December 2026. During the transition, you may need a WAMS ID for some systems, and a MyWisconsin ID for others, see our login changes flyer.

Each municipality that plans to apply for financial assistance from Environmental Loans must submit an Intent to Apply (ITA) with Priority Evaluation and Ranking Formula (PERF) information and a Financial Assistance Application through the online systems. Applicants may use the online application system's document upload feature to attach loan documents.

Request MyWisconsin ID and register for DNR Switchboard access

To gain access to the online systems, you must create a MyWisconsin ID and then register with the DNR Switchboard. When registering with the Switchboard, select “Request Access” in the top header. Then choose the “Financial” access role. You will be asked to select a facility/company. To find the correct municipality, you can enter either the Facility ID (FID) number, WPDES permit number, Public Water Supply number, or Department of Revenue (DOR) municipal code. DOR municipal codes can be found in the second column of this spreadsheet.

  • Please allow 48 hours for complete access requests to be reviewed and addressed. We recommend you request access at least two weeks prior to the ITA/Application submittal deadline.
  • Requests received within 48 hours of the submittal deadline cannot be accommodated.
  • Additional help tutorials are available on the DNR Switchboard web page.

Authorization certificate for online submittals

If you are a consultant, the municipality must authorize you to submit online materials on its behalf by completing an Online Submittal Authorization Certificate. Note: Starting with certificates submitted on or after Aug. 1, 2019, the designated consultant's authorization will stay in effect until the municipality cancels it. Email the signed, completed form to Jennifer.Kilps@Wisconsin.gov.
