Upcoming
O'Brien Battery E Groundbreaking Ceremony
Groundbreaking for Battery E, a major infrastructure investment at the O'Brien Water Reclamation Plant. The project adds a new aeration tank battery, final settling tanks, and an advanced biological phosphorus removal process to meet IEPA discharge permits — reducing phosphorus discharge and improving downstream water quality over roughly four years of construction.
O'Brien Water Reclamation Plant, 3500 Howard St, Skokie, IL 60076
The District joins officials from the City of Countryside to celebrate the completion of green infrastructure improvements at Larry Robb Park, including two rain gardens and a permeable parking lot expected to capture over 28,000 gallons of stormwater per rain event. The park is named for the late Larry Robb, a Navy veteran and longtime Countryside resident who coordinated community picnics for his neighbors near Fifth Avenue Cutoff.
