DNR Assisting with Lincoln County Manure Spill Clean-up
Wisconsin Ag Connection - 06/11/2021
The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources is aiding with the investigation of a manure spill that occurred at a dairy farm in southern Lincoln County that resulted in a fish kill in Devil Creek.
On Wednesday evening the agency was notified of an unknown amount of liquid manure running off of a field into Devil Creek, a cool-cold headwater stream and tributary of the Wisconsin River. The spill resulted in an observable fish kill at multiple locations
within Devil Creek.
The source of the manure originated from open valve on a manure pit at a medium-sized dairy operation. The duration of the spill and quantity release is still under investigation.
The DNR will continue to work with the farm and other applicable local agencies to continue to investigate the release.
