Stormwater From the Ground Up at the Waukegan Public Library, July 31, 2014

Krista Grimm, LWV-Illinois Issues Specialist for Water and delegate to the LWV-Lake Michigan Region, answers a question while Mike Novotney of the Lake County Stormwater Management Commission looks on. Spanish translation was offered for this program, as you can see by the headset worn by our co-organizer and translator, Susana Figueroa of Faith in Place.  The gentleman next to her is listening to the translation; you can see the earpiece wire descending from his left ear.  Faith in Place and the LWV-Lake County co-hosted the evening's program.
Mike Novotney of the Lake County Stormwater Management Commission explains some of the problems caused by stormwater runoff in the Lake Michigan watershed.  
   There will be another presentation next Thursday, August 7, 2014, 7 p.m., at the Highland Park Public Library,  494  Laurel Ave., Highland Park, hosted by the LWV-Highland Park/Highwood and the city of Highland Park.  Free and open to the public.
