Brown County Port and Resource Recovery Department also accepts dredged material from areas outside the navigational channel generated by other entities.
The purpose of the meeting is to solicit public comment on Brown County Port and Resource Recovery Department’s proposal and answer questions on the proposal. There will be a brief presentation starting at 4:15 p.m. given by the DNR and Brown County Port and Resource Recovery Department representatives, followed by time for questions and comments.
