Grant Description

The Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA, more commonly known as the federal Superfund law) (42 USC 9601, et seq. and the Federal Water Pollution Control Act (CWA, commonly known as the Clean Water Act) (33 USC 1251, et seq.) authorizes States, federally recognized Tribes, and certain federal agencies that have authority to manage or control natural resources, to act as trustees on behalf of the public, and to restore, rehabilitate, replace, and or acquire natural resources equivalent to those harmed by hazardous substance releases. The State of Wisconsin, the Menominee Indian Tribe of Wisconsin, the Oneida Tribe of Indians of Wisconsin, the United States Department of the Interior (represented by the United States Fish and Wildlife Service and the Bureau of Indian Affairs) and the United States Department of Commerce (represented by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) (collectively, the Trustees) have worked together, in a cooperative process, to determine what is necessary to address natural resource injuries caused by past releases of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) into the Lower Fox River and Green Bay assessment area. Natural resource damages received, either through negotiated or adjudicated settlements, must be used to restore, rehabilitate, replace and/or acquire the equivalent of those natural resources that have been injured. Specifically, the Grant recipient will acquire and provide permanent protection of 31 acres of wetland and associated upland habitat within the Town of Suamico, Brown County, Wisconsin.
