Sand County Environmental, Inc. staff member Nichole Good earned her Certified Soil Tester (CST) certification! CSTs evaluate soil to determine the location of septic systems and stormwater infiltration structures. Wisconsin law requires CSTs’ participation in private onsite wastewater treatment systems (POWTS) siting. Nichole has been evaluating soil texture, structure, redox features, and geomorphology for over 10 years; she is excited to apply her knowledge as a CST. ... See MoreSee Less

Wetland Rapid Assessment Methodology (WRAM) was developed by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (WDNR) to assess wetland quality. SCE implements this method to track the progression of wetland restorations. WRAM considers the following factors to assess the wetland’s functional value (i.e. habitat, human use, water quality, flood mitigation, etc.).
• Vegetation meander survey
• Non-native invasive species
• Floristic quality (a score indicating the conservation value of the plant community)
• Wildlife observations
• Hydrology
Much of the process consists of identifying at least 90-95% of plant species. SCE’s plant-knowledgeable staff can identify most species on sight and with field guides, but some species require a microscope to view identifying details.
