Groundwater rules debated Dawson Can't afford to have no law
Wisconsin's groundwater protection law from 1983 has exhausted the 1.5 million earmarked for partial compensation of contamination victims. Tom Dawson, Wisconsin Public Intervenor, argues fees should fund the program rather than taxpayers. He warns that unraveling the law would jeopardize groundwater quality and the consensus process, while noting only aldicarb has explicit enforcement standards so far. The piece references concerns from agribusiness and the Wisconsin Agricultural Council as well.
