Notice of Public Hearing to Submit a Nutrient Assessment Reduction Plan for NWRWRF

The Village of Fox Lake intends to submit a Nutrient Assessment Reduction Plan (NARP) for the Northwest Regional Water Reclamation Facility (NWRWRF) per National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Permit Special Condition 19. The Facility's new NPDES Permit requires the development of a NARP for phosphorus related impairments in the Fox River segment downstream of the NWRWRF. The plan includes measures to reduce phosphorus from point and nonpoint sources to meet the target level. Prior to final approval of the plan, the public's comments are sought regarding the environmental impacts of the proposed plan.

A draft of the NARP has been completed by Trotter and Associates, Inc. and reviewed by the Village. Unless new information gained from the public causes a reconsideration, the Village will submit the NARP to the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency at the close of the public comment period.

The Village is making the draft of the NARP available for public inspection and comments the draft of the NARP. That document is available online for public inspection on the Village of Fox Lake website, www.foxlake.org.

A public hearing will be held for the purpose of receiving comments on the draft of the NARP prior to the the Village Board Meeting on November 12^th at 6:15 p.m. The meeting will be held at the Village of Fox Lake Village Hall Board Room at 66 Thillen Drive, Fox Lake, IL 60020. Written comments on the draft may be submitted at any time up to November 7^th. Written comments may be submitted by email to the following:
