  • Wis. Agency Abbreviations
    GUIDE TO WISCONSIN STATE AGENCIES AND THEIR CALL NUMBERS Wisconsin Historical Society Library 816 State Street, Madison, Wisconsin 53706 Rev. to Oct. 2017 The Wisconsin State publications collection is arranged by agencies. A system of classification based on the federal Superintendent of Documents scheme was devised so that all of an agency's publications would be shelved together. This guide was produced to help you find an agency's publications. It also provides a history of agency changes in Wisconsin State government. This guide traces Wisconsin state agencies from the beginning of statehood to the present. The guide is divided into four sections. Part I is arranged alphabetically by the keyword of the agency (second column) and part II is alphabetical by call number (first column). The complete call number is not given, only the beginning alphabetical portion of the call number. Part III is a listing of subagencies with different call numbers than their parent agency. If you know the name of an agency look in Part I to find the call number In most cases everything from an agency is shelved under the call number of the major agency. There are exceptions to this. When an agency started out independently, but later became part of another agency it will still be found under its original call number. This is where Part III will prove useful. This alphabetical listing of major agencies, both past and present, with subagencies which have a different keyword classification is a reflection of an agency's history. One must remember that divisions of subagencies will have the same call number as the subagency.

  • Wisconsin's Wildlife Action Plan (2005-2015)
    Wisconsin’s Wildlife Action Plan (2005-2015) IMPLEMENTATION: Priority Conservation Actions & Conservation Opportunity Areas Prepared by: Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources with Assistance from Conservation Partners, June 30th, 2008 06/19/2008 page 2 of 93 Wisconsin’s Wildlife Action Plan (2005-2015) IMPLEMENTATION: Priority Conservation Actions & Conservation Opportunity Areas Acknowledgments Wisconsin’s Wildlife Action Plan is a roadmap of conservation actions needed to ensure our wildlife and natural communities will be with us in the future. The original plan provides an immense volume of data useful to help guide conservation decisions. All of the individuals acknowledged for their work compiling the plan have a continuous appreciation from the state of Wisconsin for their commitment to SGCN. Implementing the conservation actions is a priority for the state of Wisconsin. To put forward a strategy for implementation, there was a need to develop a process for priority decision-making, narrowing the list of actions to a more manageable number, and identifying opportunity areas to best apply conservation actions. A subset of the Department’s ecologists and conservation scientists were assigned the task of developing the implementation strategy. Their dedicated commitment and tireless efforts for wildlife species and natural community conservation led this document.

  • Wisconsin State Park - Coldcache Park Packs
    Wisconsin State Park - ColdCache Park Packs Overview: The Ice Age Trail goes through twelve (12) Wisconsin State Parks or Forests. Forty (40) ColdCache sites, plus three (3) cultural / additional sites are distributed in or near eight (8) of these state properties. ColdCache Park Packs can be checked out by visitors at these eight (8) locations. The Packs contain the site information and supplies needed to find the sites and learn about the ColdCache program. Every pack includes a GPS unit. Each pack is then customized based on the activities required to complete the tasks for the ColdCache sites at that location. These packs encourage families or other groups to be active in the outdoors. In the process, Park visitors learn how to use a GPS unit, get fresh air, exercise, and a geologic lesson while enjoying the thrill of finding a treasure and working as a team.

  • The 2005–2010 Wisconsin Statewide Comprehensive Outdoorscorp Recreation Plan
    OUTDOOR RECREATION IN WISCONSIN The 2005–2010 Wisconsin Statewide Comprehensive OutdoorSCORP Recreation Plan Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources I am pleased to present to you Wisconsin’s 2005-2010 Statewide Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan (SCORP). This document will provide you with comprehensive, up-to-date information on the status of statewide and regional recreation, as well as information about recreation supply and demand, participation rates and trends, and a discussion of outdoor recreation goals and actions for their implementation. Parks and recreation areas provide people with the opportunity to be physically active and make communities livable and desirable for businesses and homeowners. But as our population grows, public and private recreation providers face challenges in providing the quality outdoor recreation experiences that people in Wisconsin and visitors seek. This plan will assist recreation managers and decision makers with meeting these challenges. In Wisconsin, we can take pride in our strong and longtime tradition of public investment in preserving Wisconsin’s special landscapes and providing quality outdoor recreation opportunities. Wisconsin’s parks, recreation areas, open space, and natural areas play an important role in the health and well being of people in Wisconsin and our visitors. This plan will help us to continue our efforts to balance quality outdoor recreation experiences with the protection of our much loved natural and cultural resources. In closing, protecting Wisconsin’s great natural areas is a top priority for me—not only for our recreational enjoyment and the benefit of our tourism industry, but for the enjoyment of generations to come. Thank you to the numerous recreation providers, the general public, and recreation interest groups that participated in the creation of this plan for helping make Wisconsin a great place to live, work, and enjoy.
