PCB Cleanup Of Fox River Should Be Completed Next Year

The Fox River Cleanup Project completed its 10th season of work last month.  Crews have been dredging, capping and covering the river to reduce the impact of P-C-B contamination.  Those compounds are considered a cancer risk.  Nearly 325-thousand tons of sediment were processed during 2018.  Operations have been shut down for the winter and will resume in March or April, depending on the weather.
