As worries grow about water pollution caused by runoff from streets, yards and farm fields, Gov. Scott Walker's next budget calls for nearly 16% in spending cuts in programs that attack the problem.
The reductions have gone virtually unnoticed until now, overshadowed by Walker's higher profile environmental initiatives to freeze land purchases and strip the Natural Resources Board of its policy-making power.Runoff is the state's most serious water pollution problem. In Green Bay, pollutants from farm fields and other sources have helped create a dead zone, an area so low in oxygen that it can't support most aquatic life.
Money doesn't grow on trees. If you think the money should have been cut elsewhere instead then suggest that to Gov. Walker. Whining here won't fix anything.
Scott Walker's budget cuts $5.7 million from runoff pollution remedies
Way to CONSERVE one of your key resources, Gov Walker!

Walker could always try raising taxes.

And watch even more businesses leave the state, true.
BTW, how is that working out for Cali? Oh, yeah, businesses leaving by the loads and loosing about 500K a year in population. Way to go. Sure, we should all be following the example of the most bankrupt state in the Union.

From the link: "Officials with the state Department of Natural Resources say attention to runoff pollution will not diminish and other funding sources could be tapped." So it looks like the state is going to accomplish the same goal with less money. Kudos to Scott Walker
It's called efficiency, a foreign concept to leftist politiciansTranslating from standard CON to plainspeak-
Walker's team claims they will do more with less by taking money from other places rather than keep the dedicated funding and cutting the other areas that don't need the money...

Typical. Someone disagrees with a liberal, liberal starts calling them namesTalking heads, nah puppets. Of course it has to be the truth.

And call them namesNo, I give little credibility to Govt. spokes people.

Operative word is could. Then we have that other little issue he had- a deficit, from a surplus to a deficit. Not doing well is he. But then this appeals to those on the right who will blindly follow and ignore poor fiscal management.
The operative words were "will not"
