In June 2018, the Lake County Stormwater Management Commission (SMC) entered into a contract with Christopher B. Burke Engineering, Ltd. to study the Upper Des Plaines River Watershed (DPRW) within Wisconsin and the potential impacts in Wisconsin and Illinois due to development in that region. The initial results from the analysis were presented at the Stormwater Management Commission board meeting on March 7 and will be open for public review and comment until April 8. Any comments about the draft report should be sent to [email protected].
