Wetlands

Pewaukee Lake Sanitary District’s mission is to preserve, protect, promote and enhance Pewaukee Lake and its watershed. One way we do this is through our Lake Pewaukee Wetland Conservancy Program put into place to protect the lake and streams through purchases and donations of wetlands throughout our watershed and funded via the Wetland Conservancy Fund.

Another tool we have is the the Water Resource Program, which evolved by introducing the concept of service learning to a class of 25 students. The program has grown and is funded by the Water Resource Fund.

The Sanitary District has also worked with the Pewaukee River Partnership (site from 2009) to improve our wetlands.
