The state Department of Natural Resources will be conducting prescribed burns this spring on various State Natural Areas and some private lands in Crawford, Jackson, La Crosse, Pepin, and Trempealeau counties. Parcels are typically burned on a two to five year rotation and vary in size from 90 to 340 acres. Fires are used in grassland management to improve wildlife habitat, control invasive plant species and reduce wildfire potential.
Prescribed burns also: Stimulate prairie grass growth and improve habitat for upland game and waterfowl. Create pockets of open water for waterfowl amidst cattails proliferating in low areas. Improve cover type for upland nesting birds, such as pheasants, and spur native vegetative growth for songbirds. Help preserve grasslands and native flora, plant species sustained by natural fires prior to intensive European settlement.
Prosser, Koppenburg Pick Up Votes in La Crosse, TooFriday, 08 April 2011 17:16 | | |
Canvassing work on this week's elections continues in Wisconsin. La Crosse county clerk Ginny Dankmeyer says her vote totals became official yesterday. Both supreme court justices gained ten votes after re-evaluating write-ins. She says some voters wrote in the names of the candidates instead of just marking their ballots correctly.
Ginny says most vote shifts during canvassing are typically very small. Not hundreds and certainly not, she says, thousands of votes added to tallies two days after the election. Outside Spending Expected in 94thFriday, 08 April 2011 17:13 | | |
If the campaign donation pattern persists for the 94th assembly special election, there's going to be thousands of dollars from outside the district flowing in. Campaign finance reports filed right before Tuesday's primary for the 94th have republican John Lautz and democrat Steve Doyle raising over 22 thousand dollars each before the election. For Lautz, about forty percent--just over nine thousand dollars--of that came from outside the district. Less than ten percent of the money Steve Doyle raised came from outside the 94th.
