High-capacity wells possibly lowering some lake levels. (Wisconsin State Journal, 7/22/2013)
In the six-county area known as Wisconsin’s Central Sands — made up of Adams, Portage, Marquette, Wood, Waushara and Waupaca counties — residents like Wolf have watched water levels in lakes and small streams drop for years.

I'd love to hear Van Wanggaard ju$tify hi$ $pon$or$hip of this bill. I'm $ure high-capacity well$ are a hot i$$ue for all of the farmer$ in the City of Racine.
