Welcome
Welcome to the SheboyganWaters.org! As part of a national effort to address the negative impacts of polluted runoff on our streams, rivers, and lakes, Sheboygan County, has formed a Clean Water partnership with the Cities of Sheboygan and Sheboygan Falls, the Villages of Howards Grove and Kohler, and the Towns of Sheboygan and Wilson.
The purpose of the Partnership is to:
- Communicate between communities as they move forward with NR216 Phase I and Phase II compliance.
- Ensure water quality is protected to the greatest extent possible through education and information.
- Reduce outreach costs and duplication of activities among municipalities.
Having clean water is of primary importance for our health and economy. Clean water provides recreation, commercial opportunities, fish habitat, drinking water, and adds beauty to our landscape. All of us benefit from clean water-and all of us have a role in getting and keeping our wetlands, lakes, streams, and rivers clean.
Day-to-day urban activities disrupt the cycle of water movement and can sometimes pollute Sheboygan County's water resources. Many of the things that we do in our communities and around our homes can affect the quality of the water and aquatic habitat in our lakes and streams.
This also means that there are many things we can all do to improve water quality. Little changes we make can result in real improvements in the cleanliness of our environment and the health of our rivers and lakes.

| During the last decade, governmental agencies including many in Sheboygan have been active in curbing the negative impacts of stormwater pollution. Stormwater pollution issues are being targeted and addressed by Federal and State statutes, and the provisions of county and community initiatives and ordinances. As part of a national effort to address the negative impacts of polluted runoff on our streams, rivers, and lakes, Sheboygan County, has formed a Clean Water partnership with the Cities of Sheboygan and Sheboygan Falls, the Villages of Howards Grove and Kohler, and the Towns of Sheboygan and Wilson. |
