Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District Green Bond Framework

In April 2020, the Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District (MMSD) issued the first-ever Certified Climate Bond for a combined wastewater and stormwater program in the United States. The bond was verified by Kestrel Verifiers, a Climate Bonds Initiative (CBI) Approved Verifier, and Woman-Owned Small Business, based in the US. The proceeds will be used to finance capital projects including green infrastructure to reduce flooding and stormwater runoff.
