Alliant Energy Center Animal Waste Runoff Sampling
Return to Search
Purpose
Dane County Land Conservation Department staff will be collecting animal waste runoff samples from the Alliant Energy Center. Samples will be collected to determine how "effective" the current BMPS for manure management are. Four to six events will be sampled this year, sampling will target Bacteria and Nutrient Series.
Objective
Determine how effective the current BMP's are for handling the animal waste that is generated during AEC events (county fairs, world dairy expo, world horse fair, etc.). Determine if additional measures/ BMP's need to be implemented to prevent discharges to Wingra Creek.
