Sediment in our waterways is contaminated with chemicals that are present from a long history of industrial uses in the surrounding areas. Though the contaminated sediment has been in our waterways for decades, if we do not remove it many of the issues that define the Milwaukee Estuary as an Area of Concern will continue to exist. Join us for a walking tour on Monday, June 13 to learn more about the future Dredged Material Management Facility and see where most of the contaminated material from Milwaukee’s rivers is planned to be placed. Tours will leave every 10 minutes from 5:30-7:00 PM.

Registration is not required but we encourage you to sign up for a tour time to help us with planning!

Meet at the Port Milwaukee Administration Building (2323 S. Lincoln Memorial Drive). Parking is available in the Port Milwaukee Administration Building parking lot.
