That can mean an analysis of the Waukesha/DNR position, can mean hearings, or not. In the end, each Governor has to say yes or now. All eight must say yes for the diversion to go forward, and people in any of the states can take their Governor's decision - - aye or nay - - <br />to court in that state. This could on for years.James Rowenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10203270946492159686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621691715090523319.post-44324836788566547322015-07-28T22:55:04.229-05:002015-07-28T22:55:04.229-05:00Do the other states in the compact do their own st...Do the other states in the compact do their own studies of Waukesha or do the take the WI DNR word for it?<br />nanishomehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04968964874420776556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621691715090523319.post-8241901537333156282015-07-20T18:55:16.399-05:002015-07-20T18:55:16.399-05:00What?

No comment yet from Waukesha's paid media relations guy, Bill?<br /><br />The Waukesha Water Utility will not get Lake Michigan water for one reason - the science used to justify their claim that there is not enough water in the deep aquifer was based on modeling data of the aquifer from 2001 and 7 years prior. The deep aquifer had stopped declining in 2000 and began to increase - 100 feet since that SEWRPC study. <br /><br />There is no science presented in the application based on the aquifer increasing.<br /><br />And you know it, Bill.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621691715090523319.post-61316493176812474022015-07-20T14:29:28.651-05:002015-07-20T14:29:28.651-05:00Can't sort out you Anonymi, but no, the Op Ed ...Can't sort out you Anonymi, but no, the Op Ed doesn't say Waukesha should drink anyone's treated wastewater, or urine as you say. The point of the Op Ed is that by removing the additional communities from its application, and the inflated amount of water that would add to the request, Waukesha can lower its request, and meet the lowered demand through treating 3 additional wells for radium and doing better conservation.
