Season of Creation: Pilgrimage to Downers Grove Sanitary District
This tour is primarily walking outdoors and is approximately 1-1 1/2 hours. The District is dedicated to managing the valuable stream resources of the East and West Branches of the DuPage River and Salt Creek. The purpose of the tour is to educate us about the value of water and how the facility cleans up to 11 million gallons of wastewater daily and returns it to the environment. We will also learn about the processing of organic materials into Biosolids, a quality soil conditioning product available to the public. This facility has a goal of operating at net-zero! A maximum of 15 people can register for this event.
