Wisconsin DNR faces wetlands control test in Jackson County
Public intervenor Peter Peshek seeks to test DNR power over state wetlands amid a planned drainage by Roland and William Huebner to expand a 10,000 acre bog for vegetable farming in southern Jackson County. The debate centers on navigability, water rights, and possible state purchase of the wetlands while critics push for local control and stricter zoning of lake and stream use.
