Today The Environmental Defenders of McHenry County had a great on-site meeting with Illinois Department of Transportation Region 1 staff about Defenders’ care of the O’Brien Roadside
Prairie. IDOT staff gave us good feedback on the management plan that intern Jacob Karkowski has prepared for the site. We look forward to this continuing partnership!
