New Lake Co. Rainfall Data Shared at Meetings
Lake County has seen an increase in rainfall. But what does that mean for local residents?
From the City of Illinois: Lake County has been experiencing more frequent and stronger rainfall events. Recently, the Illinois State Water Survey released updated statistical rainfall data for Bulletin 70--Frequency Distributions of Heavy Precipitation in Illinois. The new rainfall data presented in Bulletin 70 impacts not only the residents and business owners of Lake County, but also public and private development projects.
The Lake County Stormwater Management Commission will be presenting the increased rainfall data along with a timeline of the regulatory process, provide resources and tools for best practices, and discuss stormwater-related issues and concerns from the audience. Both meetings will provide the same information. Members of the public, stakeholders, and individuals with an interest in hearing more about how rainfall affects Lake County are encouraged to attend.
