The Fox River Cleanup Project

What boaters & anglers should know

The Fox River Cleanup Project is moving forward toward its goal of reducing the

levels of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in the river through a combination of

dredging and capping. The Fox River Cleanup Group – Appleton

Papers, Georgia-Pacific and NCR Corporation – is providing the leadership

and funding necessary to move the project forward. Good for the environment. Good for area residents & families.

Dredging and/or capping will take place from Little Rapids to the mouth of the

river over the next nine years with oversight by the Wisconsin DNR and

U.S. EPA.
