Serving on Advisory Committees

The Wisconsin Association of Lakes serves on numerous conservation teams and stakeholder groups which advise decision makers on lake related public policy, lake protection, and lake preservation (in many cases our involvement with these entities is longstanding and ongoing). These efforts are important to the continued health of our lakes and fill a need that most individual lake groups have neither the capacity nor time to fulfill.

How does DNR use advisory committees?

We currently represent Wisconsin lakes on the following teams:

• Wisconsin Council on Invasive Species
• Forestry Council Invasives Leadership Team
