What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Brown County is constructing two agriculture sediment basins in the lower Fox River watershed. The $60,000 project is funded through the county's 2027 budget proposal. These basins are designed to capture suspended soil and phosphorus from farm runoff. The resulting water is expected to be about 50% cleaner before entering the Fox River.
