Dane County Water Quality Plan

The Dane County Water Quality Plan is the official areawide water quality management plan for Dane County, Wisconsin. The purpose of the plan is to provide a policy framework and guidance for federal, state, and local water quality protection programs in Dane County. The Dane County Water Quality Plan has been continually revised, updated and expanded since its initial adoption and certification in 1979.

The plan includes 11 technical appendices containing detailed data and supporting information in a variety of subject areas, and incorporates and is based on adopted regional land use and development plans, including the Dane County Land Use and Transportation Plan and the Dane County Farmland Preservation Plan. The Summary Water Quality Plan has been updated to reflect 2004 conditions, and includes program recommendations for all water quality management program areas, and short-range priority actions for all local designated management agencies.
