Mining groundwater rules adopted by Wisconsin board
Wisconsin Natural Resources Board approved new mining groundwater rules and a related resolution denoting the rules do not reflect DNR’s stance on non mining contamination. The standards set a 1200 foot groundwater protection radius around mines, require monitoring, and allow the department or private firms to conduct it at mine expense. Baseline data and wetlands protection receive emphasis as the rules await legislative review.
