Oneida County is located in Northern Wisconsin. Our county has over 1,100+ lakes and rivers and our water resources are a large part of our lifestyle. For this reason an Aquatic Invasive Species (AIS) program was developed in 2007 to protect our waterways from the threat of AIS. Our AIS team is an integral part of the Oneida County Land & Water Conservation Department and consists of an AIS Coordinator (Stephanie Boismenue), a Lead Project Assistant and two Project Assistants. Our program focuses on educational outreach, technical assistance, and AIS management.
We are currently reworking the AIS Website.
