Recent rain helps fill the Big Eau Pleine WAOW News Story Peter And Suzie Arnold Receive Conservation Farm Award
BEPCOOfficers, Mike Paul , President , and Doug Eisele, Vice-president, and Board member, Scott Borchardt, attended the Wisconsin Conservation Observance Day on June 25. This event honored the recipients, Peter and Suzie Arnold, of Edgar, as the Wisconsin Conservation Farmer Award Recipients from the Wisconsin Land and Water Conservation Association. BEPCO wishes to congratulate Peter and Suzie on receiving this award. The farming practices of the Arnolds are progressive. Their environmental management is outstanding. The Arnolds are true stewards of the land and comply with all state performance standards for manure management, diversion of clean water, erosion standards, and buffers. Their farm has a soil erosion rate of a mere 0.1 ton per acre vs. the State standard of 4 tons, and Marathon County’s average of 2.3 tons. Their efforts help to improve the quality of the Big Eau Pleine basin. Our special thanks to Peter and Suzie for your concern for your neighbors and the environment.
