For the City Times  

MADISON – The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) announced that the city of Nekoosa is an applicant for funding through the Safe Drinking Water Loan Program (SDWLP), to address deficiencies in its public drinking water system. The projects primarily include the replacement of lead service lines throughout the city.

“Activities related to this project are minor actions under Chapter NR 150, Wis. Admin. Code, for which no environmental analysis is required; however, following the SDWLP federal requirement 40 C.F.R. §35.3580, an environmental review must be conducted before funding this project,” a DNR release stated.

“The SDWLP has determined that the project will not result in significant adverse environmental effects, and no further environmental review or analysis is needed before proceeding with funding the project.”

The public is encouraged to submit comments regarding this decision and the potential environmental impacts of this project. Submit comments by April 26 to: Department of Natural Resources; Kevin Olson, Community Financial Assistance; CF/2; 101 S Webster St., P.O. Box 7921; Madison, WI, 53707. Residents can also contact Olson at 608-234-2238 or [email protected]

Based on the comments received, the SDWLP may prepare an environmental analysis before proceeding with the funding process. The analysis would summarize the Department of Natural Resources’ consideration of the project’s impacts and reasonable alternatives.
