FMR reviews and comments on stormwater permits to ensure that builders and landowners adhere to clean water regulations. We also request hearings on individual permits of concern. In response to our comments, as well as comments from several statewide and national groups, the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (WDNR) has significantly strengthened their proposed General Permit for construction sites including new provisions that address discharges to waters that are designated “Outstanding and Exceptional” by the state and to impaired waters on the 303(d) list, and that require monitoring. In addition, better opportunities for public comment have been incorporated. FMR is still unhappy with several provisions of the proposed General Permit for MS4s, and along with other groups, have requested a contested case hearing to address these issues. Midwest Environmental Advocates is representing us in this case. |
