Land & Water Conservation

The goal of our department is to foster and support a locally led process that improves decision making, streamlines administration, and maximizes local, state, and federal funds to protect Wisconsin’s soil and water resources.

The Rusk County Land & Water Conservation Division offers technical and, in some cases financial, assistance for a wide variety of projects related to agriculture, water resources, wildlife habitat, and shoreline restoration.  Call the office to get answers and advice on your natural resource needs.
