Martin, R., A. Miller and N. Hahn (1994). Protecting Wisconsin waters from exotic invaders. Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources, Madison, Wisconsin (USA).
On April 29, 1992, Governor Thompson signed the budget adjustment bill (Act 269) into law. Section 9142 requires the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources, in consultation with the Aquatic Nuisance Control Council, to prepare a report to the Legislature on zebra mussels by June 30, 1994. The Governor directed WDNR and the Council to examine additional staffing needs for zebra mussel activities and to develop recommendations on an appropriate funding level and potential non-general purpose revenue funding sources for consideration in the 1995-97 budget bill. Specifically the report was to identify the following key issues related to zebra mussels: The current and potential economic and environmental impacts; The potential control strategies; The geographical areas, public facilities or activities which need technical or financial assistance to reduce the environmental, public health or safety risk caused by this species; and The adequacy of existing state resources and staffing to address the problems posed by zebra mussels. This report was compiled to meet those requirements.
