  7. He came and he spoke.... And then Frank Briggs stole the shirt off his back!!! Thanks and Congrats to Frank! It was a fun evening. Thanks to all who worked behind the scenes to make the Blowout happen. And thanks to all who came out to enjoy the event.
  8. I am so sorry! I don't know how I screwed that up. I have your certificate on file. My bad Sorry again.
  9. Here are the minutes from the chat group meeting. >
  10. Minutes of the Chat Group discussion coming as soon as I edit out some non-pertaining stuff.
  11. It was a chat group, from the comfort of your own home, on the Facebook Kilbuck Keepers page. Very well attended from people from the Chicago and Wisconsin areas. Using social media to recruit other fishermen and bring attention to the Kilbuck problem seems to be working out very well.
  12. WOW! Had an AWESOME Kilbuck Creek Keepers meeting this morning. I will post a report at a later time. AWESOME!!!
  13. I am waiting to hear back from a couple people that I have contacted to hopefully hear their input on the matter. I'm kind of thinking it might be best to just meet with the landfill people and let them know what's happening downstream. Maybe they are just not aware, or maybe we can come up with some kind of solution together.
  14. That's something I need to look into. The EPA has taken samples about 2 miles downstream of the discharge ditch. I have also found in my research that a leachate specialist is probably the best way to go. Not sure if U od I has one of those?
  15. Kilbuck Keepers chat group discussion on Facebook coming up Sunday, Feb 12. Look me up on Facebook and join the group.
  16. Thanks! And thanks to Pat and Mark for the kind words.
  17. Right. I've been dealing with this and the EPA for 7 years.... >
