SUMMARY:Infrastructure Meeting on Drinking Water and Wastewater
DESCRIPTION:Join this infrastructure meeting (by Zoom) on Thursday\, August 5\, from 3 to 5 pm to discuss Wisconsin’s Drinking Water and Wastewater\, both of which received grades of C- (between mediocre: requires attention and poor: at risk) on the ASCE Infrastructure Report Card.
