Waukesha County and Jefferson County have quietly expressed a want for their own needs of aquifer water if Waukesha were to get off the aquifer and get Lake Michigan water. Imagine developments like Pabst Farms all along I-94. Growth, growth, growth. Conservation would have no impact with all the growth. A rejection of the application for a diversion exception would send SEWRPC back to the drawing board.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621691715090523319.post-79309762022938510352013-12-16T20:59:42.254-06:002013-12-16T20:59:42.254-06:00So 6:40 - why hasn't Walkerstan gone this rou...So 6:40 - why hasn't Walkerstan gone this route?
