Mr. Phillip Bernstein, Chief of Planning, Chicago Army
Corps of Engineers, gave a brief presentation on what is
being planned for implementation of flood control
methods. A series of public meetings will be held
beginning in early October to assess the interest and
commitment by the local communities to implement these
plans. It is anticipated that 75% of the cost for the
projects will be paid by the federal government and 25%
by local governments. The State of Illinois is also
interested in flood control and will help with the cost.
Mr. Bernstein stated that there are three (3) main
projects being proposed for the Des Plaines area: a
reservoir at Big Bend Lake, a levee in the Big Bend Lake
area and a levee at Rand Park. The approximate cost will
be $13 million.
Once the public meetings have been held and the input
assessed, the plans will be submitted to Congress for
approval during the next calendar year. It will be
several years before construction is started. Local
elected officials could help by contacting their
legislators.
