The Wisconsin Land Conservation Association opposed 1985 Senate Bill 32 which would remove citizen boards over the DNR and DATCP. At its three day annual conference it also rejected cuts to Soil Conservation Service help for county land conservation committees and urged funds for a purple loosestrife eradication program within the DNR.
