Abstract

This resource was donated to Olivet Nazarene University by the Black family. J. R. Black printed a number of documents from the Illinois Department of Natural Resources' website about the Mud to Parks (M2P) Program.

No creation or revision dates listed on website.

M2P is a unique, one-of-a-kind program taking river mud and returning the soil to the land. It was envisioned by Illinois' natural resource scientists in the late 1990's to address the sedimentation that is choking Illinois' rivers. Removing the sediment that was once Central Illinois topsoil, and reusing it for parks and wildlife, is a win-win for our environment. Link to current website is provided
