ENVIRONMENTAL CLEANUP & BROWNFIELDS REDEVELOPMENT
BRRTS on the Web

This Activity is part of the ST. LOUIS RIVER AOC Great Lakes Area of Concern (AOC), one of the geographically-defined rivers and harbor sites in Wisconsin that has suffered the greatest consequences due to pollution and habitat degradation. The goal of the AOC program is to clean up and restore these areas so that they are comparable to similar areas on the Great Lakes. The DNR's Office of Great Waters provides leadership for cleaning up these areas.
