The second installment of State Sen. André Jacque’s bipartisan Clean Water Agenda has been signed into law by Gov. Tony Evers.
The De Pere senator who represents a portion of Eastern Wisconsin in his constituency said this latest bill signed into law by the Governor is common-sense legislation that removes disincentives associated with Wisconsin’s Environmental Compliance Audit Program compared to a similar program offered through the federal Environmental Protection Agency.
It was unanimously supported by the bi-partisan appointees of the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) Small Business Environmental Council (SBEC), with language suggested by the DNR.
The third bill in Sen. Jacque’s bipartisan Clean Water Agenda has cleared the State Senate and is currently awaiting action in the Assembly.
