Rock River Coalition Supporters

Brian;
Who is the Rock River Coalition, and can they be enlisted for support by our lake district?
Jim

The Rock River Coalition is a group that probably opposes most of what the RKLD is trying to accomplish. They were formed in 1994 and are a non-profit that requires dues for membership.

From RRC's website:

In mid 1998, the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) approached the RRC to become its basin-wide partnership group.

Their donor and membership list includes;

Ken Johnson, DNR
Mr. Johnson has been the leading voice opposing a water level increase on Lake Koshkonong;

Todd Ambs, DNR
Mr. Ambs is formerly of the WI River Alliance, a leading advocate of Dam removal throughtout WI;

Suzanne Wade, UW-Extension
Ms. Wade served as moderator of the February, 2003 Facilitated Meeting required by the DNR;

Tom & Lois Shearer, Lake Koshkonong Wetland Association members
Gary & Penny Shackelford, Lake Koshkonong Wetland Association members

RRC received their largest donations from the DNR, and, as a party to the Guardian Pipeline Settlement, received a portion of the $100,000 Guardian paid to Jefferson County.
