North Central Wisconsin Regional Planning Commission

The Association of Wisconsin Regional Planning Commissions (AWRPC) is a voluntary association of the nine regional planning commissions in the State of Wisconsin. AWRPC convenes meetings of RPC leaders to exchange information and serves as a clearinghouse for State agency communications and involvement with RPCs.
A widespread loss of power for many days or even weeks is a very real risk for Wisconsin. Recent ice storm events (i.e., Montreal area in January 1998) provide examples of the potential impacts and devastation. This project was undertaken to improve the level of preparedness for such a long-term power outage (LTPO) event in Wisconsin.
