We are a proud recipient of a $630,000 grant from the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation’s National Coastal Resilience Fund to develop an installation-ready engineering and design plan for the river system employing aquatic habitat.

In 2017, the Metropolitan Water Reclamation District (MWRD), Friends, the Sierra Club-Illinois Chapter, and other environmental groups agreed to work together to set a limit on the amount of phosphorus the MWRD can release into the river system. Phosphorus comes into MWWRD treatment plants both in the raw sewage and the stormwater runoff. 

Chipmunks can display extreme courage if another animal approaches their territory.
