Location: Virtual
Mackenzie Manicki, Mackenzie.Manicki@wisconsin.gov, 608-206-4561
The Wisconsin Invasive Species Council is holding a series of four virtual events to present their proposed revisions to Wisconsin’s Invasive Species Identification, Classification, and Control Rule (Chapter NR 40, Wis. Adm. Code). The governor-appointed council advises the department and the state legislature on invasive species issues, including Chapter NR 40.
These sessions aim to maintain transparency with the public and request questions and feedback related to the council’s proposed regulations ahead of the official rule-making process.
Each session will host a group of Species Assessment Groups (SAGs). SAGs are experts and representatives from stakeholder groups who provide input to the council on specific species.
This session will host the following SAGs: Aquatic Plants, Aquatic Invertebrates and Fish & Crayfish. These SAGs will cover potentially invasive aquatic and wetland plants, aquatic invertebrates and fish that may negatively impact Wisconsin's waters.
More information, including how to register for these events, all slide shows, and lists of species and regulatory recommendations, can be found on the Wisconsin Invasive Species Council website.
