Groundwater Coordinating Council
Madison
August 2006
To the Honorable, the Legislature:
The Groundwater Coordinating Council (GCC) is pleased to release its 2006 Report to the Legislature. The GCC was formed in 1984 to help state agencies coordinate non-regulatory activities and exchange information on groundwater. For the past 22 years, the GCC has served as a model for interagency coordination and cooperation among state agencies, the Governor, local and federal government, and the university. It is one of the few groups in the nation to effectively coordinate groundwater activities in its state from an advisory position.
This report summarizes GCC and agency activities related to groundwater protection and management in FY 06 (July 1, 2005 to June 30, 2006) and provides an overview of the condition of the groundwater resource. See the Executive Summary for highlights and the GCC's recommendations in Future Directions for Groundwater Protection. The full report will be made available online at
http://dnr.wi. gov/org/water/dwg/gcc/rtl/gccreport.htm.

We hope you will find this report to be a useful reference in protecting Wisconsin's valuable groundwater resource.
Sincerely,
Todd Ambs
Director
Referred to committee on Natural Resources.
