To the Honorable, the Legislature:
In fulfillment of the requirements under s.
299.83 (8)(h), Wisconsin State Statutes, I am transmitting the 2009 Green Tier Biennial Progress Report. Please distribute as appropriate. I am also providing a copy of the Report to the Governor and to the Chief Clerk of the Senate.
Green Tier continues to be a powerful, sustainable force for environmental and economic performance. We are confident that with the reauthorization of the Green Tier Law that a permanent stage has been set for those committed to superior environmental performance. We will be able to not only recognize their work through a program with longevity but also to continuously improve the ways that we grow a green Wisconsin economy. It is indeed heartening to see a range of participants from 3 employees in Wisconsin to several thousand employees worldwide that share a common goal-growing green together. Our report covers both our progress and our opportunities for improvement in an effort to give you a report with both the good things being done and good work yet to be done.
For more information on the Green Tier program or additional copies of this report, please contact Mark McDermid at (608) 267-3125, or visit our web site at
