The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) proposes to reissue an authorization for the incidental taking of a rare fish, which may result from the Interstate 39/90/94 Wisconsin River Bridge Project. This permit was previously issued on Oct. 10, 2024; however, there has been a change in project activities resulting in a larger footprint and different minimization and mitigation measures, so the DNR has determined that a new public notice is warranted.
