MADISON, Wis. – Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection (DATCP) Secretary Randy Romanski announced Timothy Anderson as Administrator of the Division of Agricultural Resource Management.
“Tim has more than 25 years of experience in protecting public health, managing public sector teams, and collaborating to meet regulatory requirements," said Romanski. “He is adept at administrative rule drafting, team building, and maintaining effective partnerships, and I look forward to working with him in his new role."
