Dear Ms.
Gunn,
My property borders the Kishwaukee River in
Winnebago County.
I have spent over
twenty
years actively
working to protect,
preserve
and
improve the Kish’s water
quaiityandscenicbeauty.
I could
use
government help
in
this
endeavor.
I
am writing
to beg the illinois Pollution Control Board to
pleasesupport
the proposed new Illinois
Stream
Protection Rules
—
for strong
antidegradation
regulations.
These rules would be
in the interest of
all
of all
individuals
in
Illinois ifjustbecause-mostof
Illinois’
endangered
animals
depend on
our
rivers,
and
over
half
of the
citizens
rely on surface water for
their
drinking
water.
Sincerely,
Fran Lowman
