Brutus and I are celebrating 5 years today. It’s been a long exhausting battle.
In 2019 I received a call from the IEPA informing me that the Army Corps of Engineers had toured the landfill and found a few problems in the way the landfill conducted the control of storm runoff, discharging practices, and also something with the holding pools. The landfill was given until Spring of 2021 to complete all correction. I can only hope that now, on this 5 year Brutus anniversary, the creek can star healing itself.

Hey Guys, Here’s an interesting read for you. It seems to me that if I get all this info gathered together and put in order, it should just about be a slam dunk to hold the counties and dumps responsible for cleaning and caring for this historic stretch of creek. Say Bring It! https://indianhillmanor.net/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/HISTORY-OF-THE-VILLAGE-OF-KISHWAUKEE-8-5-20.pdf
Hopefully this year the Kilbuck will thank you with another Brutus!
