This online workshop will provide an overview of the AIS in the Northwoods,
species locations and impacts, how to recognize AIS and where to look for
them, prevention, monitoring techniques, regulations, and how to report AIS sightings! See below for registration information.

Oneida County is located in Northern Wisconsin, 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 one Project Assistant. Our program focuses on educational outreach, technical assistance, and AIS management.
