This year’s campaign theme is “De Uno, Comen Cuatro” or “From One, Eat Many.” It refers to the fact that when you have the will to be generous you can always make room for one more. And for Cicero Independiente, our approach to journalism is also about making room for more.

Hoy la EPA está llevando a cabo una audiencia llamada Revisión Trienal- Esta audiencia pública es un momento en el que miembros de la comunidad, organizaciones y más hablan sobre las formas en que los estándares de calidad del agua deben mejorar para el área/pueblo/ciudad.

Cicero Community Farm está hablando para elevar las preocupaciones sobre la recuperación de agua de la planta Stickney, que es la instalación de aguas residuales más grande del mundo que sirve a 2.3 millones de personas en el condado de Cook.Esta instalación sirve a la parte central de Chicago, así como a 46 comunidades. La planta de Stickney recibe desechos humanos, desechos industriales / comerciales y algunas aguas pluviales. También experimentamos los horribles olores de sulfuro de hidrógeno y las liberaciones de amoníaco.

La planta de Stickney es la única instalación de aguas residuales que no está desinfectada. No solo la planta Stickney no está desinfectada, Cicero es una comunidad de Justicia Ambiental. Lo que indica que los miembros de nuestra comunidad están sobrecargados de contaminación.

Hoy estamos pidiendo a la EPA que haga una revisión y análisis de esta planta que traerá muchos beneficios para la salud, mejorar la calidad del aire y desinfectar nuestra vía fluvial local. También estamos elevando las recientes inundaciones/desastres naturales que ocurrieron en Cicero.

Today the EPA is holding a hearing called the Triennial Review- this public hearing is a time where community members, organizations, and more speak to the ways water quality standards need to improve for the area/town/city.

Cicero Community Farm is speaking to uplift concerns about the water reclamation Stickney Plant which is the largest wastewater facility in the world that serves 2.3 million people in Cook County.

This facility serves the central part of Chicago as well as 46 communities. The Stickney Plant receives human waste, industrial/commercial waste, and some stormwater. We also experience the horrible hydrogen sulfide odors and ammonia releases. The Stickney Plant is the only wastewater facility that is not disinfected. Not only is the Stickney Plant not disinfected, Cicero is an Environmental Justice community. Which indicates that our community members are overburdened with pollution.

Today we are asking the EPA to do a review and analysis of this plant which will bring many health benefits, improve air quality, and disinfect our local waterway. We are also uplifting the recent flooding/natural disaster that happened in Cicero.
