New Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources Developments

Green Tier Annual Report Finalized
The Green Tier program is a "one of a kind" innovative program sponsored by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources under a legislative authorization which affords regulatory flexibility for Wisconsin companies that demonstrate superior environmental performance. These qualifying companies are also provided with a special point of contact with the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) to assist in resolving regulatory issues as well as the opportunity to use the Green Tier logo in connection with their business communications. This program is available to manufacturing companies as well as service providers. We are pleased that Godfrey & Kahn has achieved Green Tier status under this DNR program in recognition of our firm's commitment to superior environmental performance in our office and business practices.

The DNR has finalized its annual Green Tier report for Green Tier companies for the past year. Please click here to view the report.
