​ERA’s project inspections frequently take our engineers to interesting and fun places, including Quarry Lake in Naperville. Our project managers used the Naperville Park District’s paddleboats to complete an inspection under the Eagle Street pedestrian crossing. This photo also shows the Moser Tower, which ERA is beginning preliminary design phase services on to complete a variety of repairs and improvements. Consider visiting this spot in Naperville for some outdoor fun this weekend!

ERA Participates in DuPage River Sweep

5/28/2020

0 Comments

 
ERA is a part of the Adopt-A-Stream program with The Conservation Foundation. Through this program, we adopt a waterway to clean up. Once we have cleaned that waterway at least twice a year for two years, ERA’s name will be added to a sign that is posted on a local roadway. We decided to participate in the DuPage River Sweep this month as one of our cleanups for the year. Our assigned area, Will-O-Way Park in Naperville, most likely had trash swept downstream with the recent flooding. See below for some photos of our recent cleanup!

National Public Works Week 2020

5/21/2020

0 Comments

 
​We always enjoy the release of the National Public Works Week poster and theme each year and this one is more fitting than ever in the current times we are living in. The theme of this year's poster is "The Rhythm of Public Works".

APWA states "the poster challenges our members and their citizens to think about their communities as a symphony of essential services, working in concert to create a great place to live. Every community has a rhythm, a heartbeat that reflects its essence and tempo of life."

Thank you to all of the clients, friends, and colleagues working in PUBLIC WORKS and doing these ESSENTIAL SERVICES that keep our communities going every day!

Growing Season Is Here!

4/10/2020

0 Comments

 
​This week mother nature can't decide if it's winter, spring, or summer—but it's definitely warming up. 
Picture
​The growing season in Illinois typically starts around April 15th. Over the next few weeks we'll be verifying the wetland boundaries that we delineated over the winter for accuracy as well as performing delineations we've been waiting to do for the start of the growing season. If you have a project that requires a delineation, please contact us to schedule it. In the meantime, here are some spring ephemeral woodland wildflowers for your enjoyment.
