Thank you for your patience as state agencies continue their core operations in response to the COVID-19 health emergency. As we all work together, please understand that most of our staff are continuing teleworking and may have limited access to files and on-line connectivity. The department is following the state of Wisconsin Badger Bounce Back plan’s phased approach to the resumption of activities that have been delayed or put on hold.
Now that the department has entered phase 1 of the plan, programs will be resuming field work, including compliance inspections. In most cases staff will be scheduling a pre-inspection call with facilities to gather some information that had been collected in the past during on-site visits. These calls will also include discussing protocols for on-site visits that may be needed to complete all aspects of a compliance assessment. With this in mind, we ask that our customers continue to:
Set up conference calls or Skype meetings in lieu of in person meetings.
Request electronic public records online using our standard system whenever possible.
Submit documents electronically, preferably via a download link (ftp servers, DNR system, etc.). If that option is not available to you, DNR staff can receive emails up to 20 MB.
