Advancing Hydrologic Connectivity in Dane County

Wisconsin Wetlands Association "Wetland Coffee Break" talk, on Zoom. Free. RSVP for link.

media release: The Dane County Land & Water Resources Department and partners have completed a series of restoration projects over the last few years focusing on repairing hydrologic impairments. Shared goals span from nutrient reduction and water quality improvement, to flood mitigation, recreational enhancement and bolstering ecological integrity. Sitting in the shadow of the state capital, the projects have been used to demonstrate techniques and the many co-benefits of hydrologic restoration to local residents, legislators, community officials, and natural resource practitioners. Learn more about these projects from Watershed Coordinator James Brodzeller.

James Brodzeller has worked in water resources management throughout Wisconsin for 17 years. A proud UW – Stevens Point graduate, he has spent time monitoring the Wisconsin River Basin, developing water quality and hydrodynamic models, and served as Wisconsin DNR’s Wetland Program Coordinator. He currently focuses on stream and wetland restoration on Dane County parkland.
