Mercury Rule Doesn’t
Go Far Enough, Fast Enough
To Protect WI Families
The
Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources is currently
seeking public comments on their latest revision to
the mercury reduction rule, NR 446. The Sierra Club
believes that the revised DNR rule does not go far enough,
fast enough to protect Wisconsin families. Read
the press release for details.
The
Sierra Club encourages citizens concerned about mercury
contamination in Wisconsin to attend the upcoming public
hearing at 9:00 a.m. on Monday April 7 in room G09 of
the GEF 2 Building, 101 S. Webster St, Madison, WI.
Written comments will be accepted on the Mercury rule
until close of business Monday April 14, 2008. Email
comments to: Jon.Heinrich@Wisconsin.gov
