This Weeks Meeting

The following is from a press release about the meeting on March 16.

An update will be given by Ameren UE on the lower reservoir, followed by the stream restoration plan for the portion of the East Fork of the Black River that runs through Johnson's Shut-Ins State Park. Stabilization on the upper reaches of the river has to take place first to ensure that the continued work doesn't result in further sediment reaching the Black River. There also will be an update on water quality issues in the Black River. Following the presentations, there will be time to visit with individuals from the Department of Natural Resources and other partners in the restoration efforts.

I hope by Thursday that the river is back down to normal levels so we can see if the high water cleared out some of the silt.
