The compact provides for exceptions in sending water outside the basin for communities such as Mount Pleasant that straddle the divide.   And in his decision, Hayes said Racine’s request to send up to 7 million gallons of water daily, primarily to serve the Taiwan company’s needs, met requirements of the compact and state law.
