Information Keeping You Informed!

An article appeared in the April 6, 2007 edition of The Rhinelander Daily News. The OCLRA Board of Directors believes that the formation of a separate Oneida County department for Aquatic Invasive Species (AIS) would be redundant to efforts already underway by the County’s Land and Water Conservation Department; dilutive of efforts to prevent and control the spread of AIS in County waterways; and result in the expenditure of funds that could better be used to prevent and control AIS in the County.
