Referral of Agency Reports
State of Wisconsin
Groundwater Coordinating Council
Madison
August 2010
To the Honorable, the Legislature:
The Groundwater Coordinating Council (GCC) is pleased to release its 2010 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 26 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 and provides links to information on GCC and agency activities related to groundwater protection and management in FY 10 (July 1, 2009 to June 30, 2010). The links also provide information on the condition of the groundwater resource. At the end of this report are the GCC's recommendations titled Directions for Future Groundwater Protection.
We hope you will find this report to be a useful reference in protecting Wisconsin's valuable groundwater resource.
Sincerely,
Bruce Baker, Chair
Groundwater Coordinating Council
Referred to committee on Natural Resources.

To the Honorable, the Legislature:
A1007
This report is transmitted as required by s.
20.002 (11)(f), Wisconsin Statutes, (for distribution to the appropriate standing committees under s.
13.172 (3), Wisconsin Statutes) and confirms that the Department of Administration has found it necessary to exercise the "temporary reallocation of balances" authority provided by this section in order to meet payment responsibilities and cover resulting negative cash balances during the month of July 2010.
On July 26, 2010, the General Fund cash balance closed at a negative $123.0 million (its intra-month low). This negative balance continued through July 31, 2010, when the fund's cash balance closed at a negative $84.4 million. The negative balance was due to the difference in the timing of revenues and expenditures.
On July 1, 2010, the Medical Assistance Trust Fund cash balance closed at a negative $253.1 million (its intra-month low). This negative balance continued through July 29, 2010, when the fund's cash balance closed at a positive $4.2 million. The negative balance was due to the difference in the timing of revenues and expenditures.
