BY DWD SECRETARY CALEB FROSTMANThe goal of the Unemployment

Insurance (UI) program, which providespartial wage replacement to workers outof work through no fault of their own, isto provide economic stability to not justindividuals and their families, but tosupport the entire state. UI benefitsensure bills are paid, families are fed,and local businesses are supported dur-ing times of economic contraction.

Governor Tony Evers, throughEmergency Order, has taken multiplesteps to provide direct assistance to indi-viduals out of work due to the COVID-19pandemic. He waived work searchrequirements to ensure individuals stayattached to their previous employers andloosened the "able and available to workrequirement" to extend benefits to moreworkers impacted by the virus.

The federal government has alsotaken multiple steps to assist the unem-ployed, and the Department ofWorkforce Development's (DWD) UIDivision staff are preparing to imple-ment the new requirements as soon asthey receive final guidance from the U.S.Department of Labor.

But the only way to get much need-ed financial assistance into the hands ofWisconsinites faster is to repeal the one-week waiting period for UI benefits.Under current state law, workers do notreceive any benefits for the first weekthey are out of work. Prior to the pan-demic, more than 40 states had a one-

week waiting period for benefits.According to recent reports, fewer thaneight states still have the requirement inplace.

Wisconsin is one of those states, butwe don't have to be. While the one-weekwait hurts our state's families and econ-omy in a normal situation, it will hurteven more now. Once available toclaimants, the Federal government'sPandemic Unemployment Compensation(an additional $600 per week for thosereceiving unemployment benefits) willbe available for the first week of a claim,but only if that state does not have aone-week waiting period. Foregoing thefirst week of needed state and Federalbenefits can easily be avoided throughlegislative action. The time to act is now.Out-of-work Wisconsinites don't haveweeks to pay their bills. EssentialWisconsin businesses don't have weeksto make their payroll.

Gov. Evers called on the legislatureon March 17 to pass legislation to repealthe one-week waiting period. The gover-nor and Democrats in the legislaturehave continued to champion this com-monsense measure. I was encouraged tosee this proposal gain bipartisan supportand now ask that the legislature actswiftly to guide the law change throughboth houses and get it on GovernorEvers' desk as soon as possible. The sta-bility of Wisconsin families and oureconomy depends on timely legislativeaction.

The arrival of spring is a welcomeoccurrence for many people. Buddingflowers are among the harbingers ofspring. Spring flowers can revitalize win-ter-weary people just when they need itmost — and provide reassurance thatbrighter, warmer and longer hours ofsunlight are just around the corner.

Cold-tolerant flowers are hardyenough to start blooming before the lastfrosts have dissipated. Other flowers willbegin to fill in as days warm a little bitmore, according to Better Homes andGardens. Home gardeners looking towarm up their gardens with early bloomscan use these flowers in their early-sea-son containers, window boxes and plant-ing beds.

• Pansy: Pansies prefer cool weather,which can make them one of the bestflowers to plant in early spring and latefall. Pansies come in a variety of colors,so there’s bound to be an offering thatwill blend with any homeowners’ land-scape design.

• Creeping phlox: Also known “mossphlox,” creeping phlox is a shortground-cover that is a herbaceous peren-nial. Phlox produces small, fragrant

flowers in dense clusters, which canattract wildlife, such as butterflies, totheir mats across the soil surface.

• Snowdrops: Snowdrops can peekout even when there is snow still on theground — sometimes as early as Januaryand February. But their name is actuallya reference to their appearance, as snow-drops have three white petals that hangdown like drops dripping off the stem.

• Violets: These flowers are closelyrelated to pansies and, as a result, prefercool seasons. Violets are generally slight-ly smaller than pansy blooms, but theycan be just as beautiful. But as withpansies, violets will start to fade whenthe heat arrives.

• Crocus: Crocus plants are relativelysmall, only reaching three to six inchesin height. However, their grass-likeleaves are some of the first sprouts thatcan be seen among bulb and corm plant-ings. Preferring full to partial sun, thesegold, purple, lavender, white, or yellowflowers can be enjoyed during the earli-est days of spring.

• Daffodil: Daffodil bulbs producecheerful, yellow flowers in early spring.They’re one of the most recognizableflowers thanks to their familiar shapeand fragrant aroma.

• Lenten rose: Hellebores, also calledthe Lenten rose or Christmas rose, cantolerate light frosts. These blooms gettheir name from the time of year whenthey bloom, which is typically aroundthe Christian Lenten season. Despitetheir name, these delicate flowers arenot actually related to roses, however.

Homeowners can employ many dif-ferent design techniques to create one-of-a-kind properties. Adding a waterfeature to a landscape is one such tech-nique.

Water gardens, koi ponds or foun-tains have been home landscapingtrends for the past several years.Although water features can add an ele-ment of relaxation to landscapes, suchfeatures require maintenance to keepthem attractive and running properly.

The right designHomeowners should create a water

feature design that is fitting with thescale and style of their homes while alsokeeping their lifestyles in mind. Pondsare popular water features and, likepools, come in both inground andabove-ground styles. Above-groundponds are easier and faster to build thaninground ponds and may be saferoptions for parents of young children.Streams and waterfalls also are popularand can make use of natural variationsin property grading. Fountains can befreestanding structures or a componentof a pond or another body of water.

Recognize that the location of thewater feature can impact its mainte-nance. For example, a fountain or pondlocated directly under deciduous treeswill require more frequent cleaning toremove leaf and tree debris. Ponds thatreceive direct sunlight may have morepronounced algae growth. Homeownersshould work with a skilled water gardenexpert in planning the feature’s designand location with safety and upkeep inmind.

Maintain pumps Water features require the constant

flow of water to prevent stagnation andproliferation of mosquito and otherinsect larvae. That requires a pump topush the water around. According toGrounds Maintenance, a green industryprofessionals resource, the pump shouldbe securely situated on level ground sothat vibrations will not cause the pumpto move around and eventually loosenfittings.

Even pumps protected by an intakefilter or screen can become clogged withdebris. It’s necessary to routinelyinspect the screen and the pump filterand remove any obstructions. Otherwise,the pump motor can overheat and mal-

function. Keep in mind that debris alsomay include animal life, such as frogs,snakes, turtles — anything that may bedrawn to the water feature.

Finding balanceThe wrong balance of conditions in

the water can cause problems. Accordingto the experts at This Old House, whichoffers ideas and advice for old houseenthusiasts, algae can be the root of allevil in garden features. Controllingnutrients, which may involve watchingthe levels of nitrogen compounds andphosphorous, will help control thealgae.

Avoid locating the water featurewhere lawn and garden runoff will findits way into the water. Filtration androutine testing of water levels also canhelp. Water features that are not meantto become wildlife habitats may benefitfrom a mild sanitizer to keep algae atbay. A thorough cleaning of liners at theend of the season to eliminate materialsthat build up on the bottom can help,too.

Winter preparationWhen colder weather arrives, home-

owners must decide if they want to keepthe water feature running or shut itdown. Many experts say smaller pondsshould be drained, cleaned and leftempty until spring. This is also a time tocut back the dead plant material andremove any tropicals from the water.Remove pumps and drain water featurelines so they can overwinter withoutfreezing.

Water features can make propertiesinviting. But such features add anotherlevel of maintenance to landscapingtasks.
