| USACE, Chicago Division posted We are happy to announce that #USACEChicago and Racine County, Wisconsin have officially signed a Project Partnership Agreement for the Horlick Dam: Root River Restoration Project under the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Great Lakes Fishery and Ecosystem Restoration (GLFER) program! 🖋 ✅ With this agreement in place, work can now begin on designing the recommended plan to remove the 19-foot [3m] tall low hazard dam structure — a major step toward revitalizing our river ecosystem. 📐 Over the next year, construction plans and specifications will be developed, leading to a contract award and project implementation. 🌿 Why this matters: Restores ~7 miles of upstream river habitat Opens fish passage to 160 miles of river and tributaries This is a major win for Racine County, our environment, and future generations who will benefit from a restored, free-flowing Root River! |
Of six street views, this was the lowest flow.
