DNR announces revisions to invasive species regulations effective Jan. 1

MADISON — The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources today announced that revisions to Wisconsin’s Invasive Species Identification, Classification and Control Rule (ch. NR 40, Wis. Admin. Code) will become effective Jan. 1, 2027. Ch. NR 40 makes it unlawful to transport, transfer, introduce, and in some cases, possess regulated invasive species. Invasive species are organisms that are nonnative and cause harm to Wisconsin’s environment, economy or may pose threats to human health. This revision clarifies key sections and updates the species classified under the rule. Under ch. NR 40, invasive species are classified into two categories: prohibited or restricted. Prohibited species are those that are not yet present in the state or may exist in small, isolated populations. Statewide containment is still feasible for species in the prohibited category. The rule makes it unlawful to transport, transfer, introduce or possess these species. Restricted species are those that are already widespread in the state, and statewide containment is no longer feasible. The rule makes it unlawful to transport, transfer or introduce these species but does not regulate their possession. The aim of this classification is to prevent further introductions and spread. A total of 65 new regulated species will be added

Kilian: Wauleco’s treatment system may get shut off. The community must act.

Wausau’s Independent: By Tom Kilian for Wausau Pilot & Review. The new owner of the Wauleco SNE Corp property, which is the former Crestline and SNE window manufacturing site, recently submitted a pilot plan to the DNR to shut down the groundwater treatment system. From my perspective, ceasing active remediation for the site is premature and inappropriate. And unlike years ago, when residents were less aware of the issue and, therefore, less empowered to do something about it, times have changed. Now our people can apprise themselves of the situation and take appropriate action, so that this severe contamination will finally be cleaned up thoroughly.
