Some landowners face off against gas pipeline

By CARMEN ENSINGER Jersey County Journal As Spire Inc. gets ready to start work on the new underground natural gas pipeline that will travel through the entire length of Greene and Jersey counties and a portion of Scott County, local landowners are frustrated that Spire is coming in and taking a portion of their land without mutually acceptable compensation.

The 65-mile pipeline, which joins up with the Rockies Express Pipeline in Scott County, is being built to transport natural gas to the St. Louis area. Spire is required to get an easement to go through a landowner’s property to build the pipeline.

Diamond Land Consultants, LLC consults and works with landowners affected by federal pipelines across the country.

“Our goal is to ensure proper protections and fair compensation for the required right of way through their personal property,” Diamond Land Consultants President Nate Laps said. “We started working with landowners on the Spire project in early 2017 and represent approximately 40 land owners and their properties.”

“Spire decided the best way to deal with us and our group was to sue all the affected local landowners and condemn their properties.”

“We don’t think it’s fair to the landowners and local attorneys who worked with us in good faith to pay dramatically more for similar land.”

Nate Laps

President, Diamond Land Consultant

Spire spokesperson

Back in 2016, Illinois Farm Bureau held a special meeting urging landowners to contact an attorney before signing any easement agreement to make sure they are adequately compensated.

Per the law, landowners must be paid for loss of certain uses of the land in question during and after construction, loss of any other resources and any damage to the property caused by construction of the pipeline.

If there is no agreement reached with the company and the landowner, the company may acquire the easement through the use of eminent domain, which is the right given to a company by statute to take private land for commission-authorized use.

The term used to describe the formal act of exercising this power is condemnation.

In August, Spire filed for condemnation action in U.S. District Court in Springfield on tracts of land in Jersey and Greene county.

These easements are generally 75 to 100 feet wide during the construction process with the permanent right of way usually about 50 feet wide.

The landowner pays taxes on this right of way unless the local taxing authority grants relief to the landowner.

Laps said that Spire used aggressive tactics in obtaining the easements on the land.

“Spire never gave us an opportunity to negotiate compensation or specific property concerns of the landowners,” he said. “Ultimately, Spire decided the best way to deal with us and our group was to sue all the affected local landowners and condemn their properties. All three federal

district courts granted Spire access to our properties before any compensation was paid to landowners.”

While the Federal Energy Regulator Committee (FERC) granted Spire a Certificate of Public Necessity and Convenience on Aug. 3, 2018 to allow Spire to proceed with the construction of the pipeline, the action came on a three to two vote. The two commissioners who voted against it publicly stated their opposition to the pipeline while the three voting in favor did not post their reasons.

These opinions are on the FERC website. Here is what Commissioner Richard Glick said in his dissent on the project: “Before issuing a certificate of public convenience and necessity under section 7 of the Natural Gas Act (NGA),

the Commission must find both that the pipeline is needed, and that, on balance, the pipeline’s potential benefits outweigh its potential adverse impacts.

“The record in this proceeding is patently insufficient to make these determinations, as there is neither evidence that the Spire Project is needed nor that its limited benefits outweigh its harms. Congress’ directive that the Commission determine whether a proposed pipeline is in the public interest surely requires more than the anemic review provided by today’s order.

“I am particularly disappointed with the order because it lends credence to the critique that the Commission does not meaningfully review section 7 applications.”

Glick feels that the record (See, PIPELINE, A2)

New gun laws proposed in Illinois

By KYLE CUNNINGHAM Jersey County Journal Last month, two bills were proposed in Illinois that could have a significant impact on gun restrictions across the state.

State Senator Julie A. Morrison from the 29th district proposed Senate Bill 107, which would ban semi-automatic rifles and shotguns that have a detachable magazine, if the gun has one or more cosmetic features such as a muzzle brake, pistol grip or adjustable stock.

Pistols with a similar list of features would be targeted, as well.

The other bill involves social media and comes from the House, which was filed by House Representative Daniel Didech. This proposal (HB 0888) would require all FOID card applicants to turn over a list of all their social media accounts to authorities for review. The state police would then review the information and determine if any content on that individual’s account would disqualify them from obtaining a FOID card.

Exemptions will be in place with law enforcement and some firearms will be allowed if they are registered with authorities (See, GUN LAWS, A2)

HALFTIME PERFORMANCE DRUMS UP EXCITEMENT Elementary students provided halftime entertainment at the Jersey Community High School Junior Varsity basketball game Tuesday night with a bucket drumming performance.

By KYLE CUNNINGHAM Jersey County Journal Since its inception in 2013, the Jerseyville Parks and Recreation’s Department annual Daddy/Daughter Valentine Dance has been a huge success. It’s been so popular, in fact, that the event has expanded from one night to two nights, and now three nights, which debuts this year.

According to event coordinator Tyler Hermens the sheer amount of people signing up moved them to adding a third night.

“The volume of registration we are receiving along with the limitations of our facility led to us expanding to three nights,” Hermens said.

The dance will be on Feb. 15, 16 and 17 between 6-8:30 p.m. and is for dads and daughters ages 3-12 at the cost of $15 per person. The price will include a buffet dinner catered by the Brass Door, dessert, dancing and activities.

All three nights have been sold out with over 155 people signed up for each dance. The popularity keeps rising and it has been proven to be fun for all who attend.

“All the feedback we get is positive and everyone looks forward to it each year,” Hermans said. “It is our most popular event we hold.”

JERSEY COUNTY JOURNAL

Pipeline (Continued from A1) does not demonstrate that the project is even needed. “Today’s order concludes that the Spire Project is needed based on a single precedent agreement between Spire and its local distribution company (LDC) affiliate—Spire Missouri—while turning a blind eye to the many concerns raised in the record. “Critically, as relevant parties acknowledge, the precedent agreement does not correspond to any incremental demand or market growth. Rather, the precedent agreement merely documents Spire Missouri’s intent to shift its firm transportation capacity from an existing pipeline owned and operated by Mississippi River Transmission (MRT) to the Spire Project.�

Commissioner Cheryl A. LaFleur also sided with the landowners. “The Commission must also consider the adverse impacts on landowners and communities. Here, the disruption to landowners and communities, unnecessary right-of-way, and the potential eminent domain action further tip the scale against any potential benefits the Spire Pipeline could have. I believe the adverse impacts on landowners have not been appropriately balanced in the Commission’s economic test.�

Laps admitted that Spire initially made offers to landowners two years ago when the project first originated. “Those first offers were handed out two years ago and never changed with a ‘takeit or leave-it’ attitude combined with very threatening tactics,� he said. “The scare tactic of eminent domain was used often.

All of this could have been avoided by sitting down and negotiating terms and compensation. Instead, Spire chose to use corporate bullying and strong-arming to get their way.�

While the easement might be between 75 and 100 feet, in some cases it will devalue the entire parcel of land. “There are many reasons why it could devalue the entire parcel but the main reason is because you cannot built over or on the easement,� Laps said. “For instance, if a landowner wants to put up a house or a shed on his property over the easement – he can’t do that now.�

Another reason is that the landowner will have a harder time selling the property should he ever decide to do so. “They will have a hard time selling due to limited areas to build or plan future operations,� Laps said. “Keep in mind that Spire has the rights to the permanent easement forever. That means in four years from now if they want to access the easement they are legally permitted to.�

Laps said his team has been out on multiple properties recently monitoring activities. As of last week, Spire has not begun construction on the majority of the properties in Greene County, where the project is beginning, because there are so many issues with necessary surveys and several landowners that they somehow missed in their suit for immediate access.

Laps said that Spire has trespassed and entered areas they legally are not permitted to access multiple times in the last few weeks, but charges on Jan. 22 state they went too far. “Our agent was out and realized that Spire and Michel Construction Company were parking equipment and trucks on one of our client’s adjoining property nowhere near the easement,� Laps said. “This was intentional and deliberate and my agent called the sheriff and the sheriff kicked them off the property. The sheriff was very helpful in preparing a report of trespass and damages. Spire did trespass but they also caused a lot of damages and we are currently acquiring third party estimates of damages they have caused.�

(NOTE: This incident took place in St. Charles County in Missouri.)

In their rush to obtain the easements through eminent domain, Spire may have created additional problems for the project. “Even after all the litigation, Spire still needs to obtain soil surveys, drain tile surveys, core bore samples and many additional surveys outside of their courtordered easement,� Laps said. “Spire is requesting survey access but because they have destroyed so many relationships, landowners aren’t making it easy for them.�

Spire has a different story to tell, basically saying that much of what Diamond

Land Consultants is saying simply isn’t true. “It’s important to note that Diamond Land represents a small number of the total landowners along the pipeline route,� Jenny Barth, manager of external communication, said. “We have reached fair agreements with the majority of landowners and their local counsel.�

According to Barth, these offers were fair and transparent, rooted in industry valuation standards as well as being customized for each parcel of land and its unique features.

The offers extended by Spire were above market value and included three years of lost crop revenues. “We have been open to discussion and we increased offers when provided evidence of increased values,� Barth said. “These offers were made to all landowners, multiple times, including those represented by Diamond Land and they were accepted by the majority of the landowners along the route.�

Barth said Spire settled with every single Illinois landowner represented by a local Illinois attorney. “Based in Belleville, Jacksonville and Jerseyville, these attorneys have experience with similar infrastructure projects and land valuation in the area,� Barth said. “However, Diamond Land is not a local company and they have come to town promising their clients multiples of fair market value. We made numerous offers to Diamond Land clients – offers in line with other landowner settlements.

Our final offer in the fall of 2018 was significantly higher than our initial offer.�

Barth said their final offer was higher because eminent domain has always been a last resort. “We don’t want to use eminent domain – we want to provide fair compensation for land,� she said. “Diamond Land has consistently asked for double, triple, even quadruple what other landowners received. And we don’t think it’s fair to the landowners and local attorneys who worked with us in good faith to pay dramatically more for similar land.�

According to Barth, Spire did try to negotiate with landowners on the 20 parcels in Greene County obtained through eminent domain. “Those tracts are owned by landowners who received multiple offers for fair market value plus three years of crop damages,� she said. “Spire has reached agreements with 75 percent of landowners in Greene County. Diamond Land offered to represent these 20 tracts, even though they are not licensed Illinois real estate brokers or attorneys. Without that local knowledge and experience, they promised landowners much more than experts agree the land easement is worth.�

As part of the final offer for fair market value plus the three years of crop damage, the landowners were warned. “We clearly and openly informed landowners that if an agreement could not be reached, we would have to file for eminent domain,� Barth said. “The federal approval to construct the pipeline provides a short window of less than two years to complete all construction. To meet this federal requirement and having exhausted all efforts to reach reasonable and fair agreements with the few remaining landowners, we had to proceed with eminent domain, even though our goal has always been to avoid eminent domain if at all possible.�

As for the concerns about right of way, Barth said they do everything they can to stay on the right of way granted through the easements. “If we leave the right of way, we are required to report it to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC), who regulates this project,� Barth said. “We are only aware of only a few times that our equipment mistakenly went outside of the approved right of way, and we selfreported it to FERC.�

Barth said Spire’s mission is to improve communities. “As part of our mission, we promise to advance every community we touch— with no exceptions,� she said. “Throughout this project, we’ve honored that mission, sponsoring community events and bringing 400 local jobs to the area. In the end, our goal for this and every project is to use our energy for good. That’s our promise to the communities along the pipeline, and it’s a promise we will always keep.�

New pathway to U of I engineering for Lewis and Clark students A new agreement with the University of Illinois College of Engineering is paving the way for Lewis and Clark Community College students to earn guaranteed acceptance while saving thousands on tuition during their first two years of college.

L&C is recruiting high school seniors to start the program in Fall 2019. Applications will be accepted now through March 15. “This is a wonderful opportunity for students in the L&C district who will benefit from significantly lower tuition for their first two years, smaller class sizes, dual advising, and a freshman orientation course, all with guaranteed admission into one of the highest ranked engineering programs in the country,� said L&C Dean of Transfer Programs Jill Lane.

Students must first apply to Lewis and Clark and take their math placement test, which can be scheduled by calling (618) 468-5240. After doing so, they can apply to the U of I Engineering Pathways Program for L&C at http:// pathways.engineering.illinois.edu.

Students will move through the program as a cohort, taking a specific course load each semester for two years at Lewis and Clark to

Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, then would have to submit a copy of that license to the Illinois State Police, along with an affidavit declaring it remains valid. Shop owners would also have to install surveillance equipment, maintain an electronic inventory, establish anti-theft measures and require employees to undergo annual training. The bill is referred to the Combatting Illegal Gun Trafficking Act and is primarily focused at reducing gun violence across the state.

The newly instated law has already caused several small gun shops to close within the state, such as Fishman’s Sporting Goods in Girard and Walnut Creek Shooters supply in Brownstown. This is simply due to the high cost it will now take to comply. It is estimated that surveillance equipment alone will cost anywhere from $5,000 to $10,000 in addition to roughly $3,000 in licenses.

As of right now, SB 107 has been assigned to the Judiciary Committee for further review, while HB 0888 has been assigned to the Rules Committee for further review.

earn their Associate in Engineering Science degree. During the summer between their freshman and sophomore years, they will complete a summer residency at the U of I in Urbana-Champaign.

As long as they maintain the academic requirements, which include a 3.5 cumulative and technical GPA at L&C, and complete the required coursework on time, they will be guaranteed admission into the College of Engineering at U of I. Compared with students who enter the College of Engineering right out of high school, L&C students will save more than $22,858 (based on 2018-2019 tuition) on their first two years of college. They can also take advantage of the opportunity to stay close to home, and thrive in small class sizes.

Scholarship opportunities may be available for these students.

The Engineering Pathways program, currently offered at eight Illinois community colleges, offers a seamless transfer between institutions. L&C is the first community college downstate to participate.

Is Valentine’s Day about more than roses and chocolates?

The Issue: Money spent is not a true measure of love Our View: Skip the expensive gifts and give what really counts — love

Publisher and Editor: Julie Boren publisher@campbellpublications.net

W

hen most of us think about Valentine’s Day, it’s all roses, chocolate covered strawberries and fancy dates at expensive restaurants.

Valentine’s Day is quickly approaching, which means it’s time to show the significant other in your life how much you really care for them. And if you think that last teddy bear on the shelf at the store missing one eye will suffice, forget about it.

Nowadays, it seems that Valentine’s Day gifts are getting bigger, more extravagant and definitely more expensive. But nothing says, “I love you” more than a diamond necklace or expensive watch, right? Maybe not.

While the true history behind the romantic holiday and its name-sake, Saint Valentine, is pretty mysterious, one of the most popular legends surrounding the man is not one of expensive gifts.

According to History.com, Saint Valentine served as a priest during the third century of Rome. Emperor Claudius II banned all marriages and engagements for young men in Rome, believing their unwillingness to join the military was due to distracting marriages.

Valentine, realizing the injustice of this decree, bought all the young men nice watches and chocolates. Just kidding, but maybe you see where this is going.

Valentine put his life on the line by disobeying the decree of the emperor and performing marriages for young lovers in secret. The disobedience would eventually lead to Valentine being sentenced to death, carried out on no other day than Feb. 14.

While it may not exactly be necessary to perform secret marriages for young lovebirds anymore, it may be time to rethink how we approach this holiday.

Today, it seems Valentine’s Day is much less about selfless acts to express our love and much more about how much we can spend on each other.

While buying gifts for someone is nice, it should not be required or leave anyone with an empty wallet.

With it seeming more and more like the amount of money you spend on someone is the only tangible measure of love on this holiday, the holiday is practically overshadowed by pressure to purchase the perfect gift.

Love is about spending time together, showing kindness and respect to one another and appreciating what is shared between the two of you — like Valentine appreciated the love between the young couples of Rome.

Valentine’s Day is about showing your loved one what they mean to you, on Feb. 14, and every other day of the year.

The William Houston Fulkerson Family – Part 4 and 5 of 5 W

illiam Fulkerson raised shorthorn cattle and was known throughout Illinois and beyond for his superior livestock. An 1877 “Chicago Tribune” article shows that Fulkerson paid $255 for a cow and calf. Two glass cases in the home were filled with ribbons and awards won by the cattle, and potential buyers were often entertained at Hazel Dell for days before the possibility of a sale was ever broached.

In addition to his cattle, more than 200 horses were stabled by Fulkerson. According to a grandson, William sympathized with Jesse and Frank James and supplied their gang with fresh horses.

The gang once camped behind the barn, and “Aunt Mary,” one of the freed slaves who came north with the family, prepared meals for them.

When he was not entertaining guests or raising cattle, William and Cornelia traveled throughout the US, Canada and Europe. William also helped organize the First National Bank in Jerseyville and served on the Illinois State Board of Agriculture, the board of trustees for the University of Illinois and was general manager for the C.P. & St.L. railroad during its construction.

After settling in Jersey County, the Fulkerson family continued to expand. In October 1867 William and Cornelia’s third child, Sarah Blanche Fulkerson, was born.

In August 1869 their fourth child, Joseph Russell Fulkerson, was born.

Their youngest child, Frank Eberle Fulkerson, was born 1873.

Times were good at Hazel Dell, and the family enjoyed many happy years on the farm.

However, the early 1880s would bring heartache for the Fulkersons.

— The Fulkersons enjoyed many happy years on their beautiful farm, but the 1880s would prove to be a difficult time for the family.

William’s younger brother, Robert Francis, called Frank, was helping William on the farm when a Texas longhorn butted him in the stomach. According to several accounts, the injury resulted in a tumor that proved to be fatal, and on June 1, 1880, Frank passed away at Hazel Dell.

He was 43 years old.

Tragedy struck again three years later. A somewhat frequent visitor to Hazel Dell was Cornelia’s nephew, Charles M. Russell, who lived in St. Louis as a child and later became one of the nation’s premiere western artists. Charlie, as friends and family called him, was the same age as William and Cornelia’s oldest son, Jim. Charlie was fascinated with the West and the life of a cowboy. He loved visiting his cousins in the country, and he learned to ride and rope atop Great Britain.

At age 16, Charlie got his wish and moved to Montana. After two years, he returned home for

a visit and to Guest Column show his family how well BY BETH MCGLASSON he had settled into life in the West. Jim was enthralled with Charlie’s stories and begged his parents to let him return to Montana with Charlie to work on a cattle ranch. Although he was in the last year of high school, his parents finally agreed to let him go.

Charlie and Jim made the trip West via train.

The pair had been in Montana a short time when Jim became quite ill with Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever. Alarmed at his cousin’s condition, Charlie called for a doctor, who bled Jim with leeches and applied a poultice to his face.

The concoction blinded Jim and did nothing to ease his suffering. Charlie telegraphed his aunt and uncle to come at once, but there was nothing they or anyone else could do. Jim died two weeks later at age 18. His parents brought his body back home to Jersey County, and he was buried in Oak Grove Cemetery.

In 1888, William suffered another loss. Great Britain — the magnificent horse who saved his life at Chickamauga, pulled the wagon that transported the Fulkerson family from Tennessee to Illinois, hauled mud from Macoupin Creek to be used for bricks to build Hazel Dell, and who was used to teach the Fulkerson children and cousin Charlie how to ride — died at age 32. He was buried on the front lawn of Hazel Dell beneath the buckeye trees.

As William aged, the wound he had suffered at Chickamauga increasingly pained him, and he was forced to use a cane. As was common in those days, he used laudanum and tincture of opium to ease his suffering.

In 1904, Sarah married Judge Charles White of Jerseyville. In November 1906, Joe married Alice Cory, and a month later Frank married Charlotte Lowe. William and Cornelia turned Hazel Dell over to Frank and Charlotte (although the farm remained in Cornelia’s name until her death three years later) and moved to town to live with their daughter Sarah and her husband Judge Charles White.

Cornelia passed away in 1909, and Frances, who had never married, in 1918. After Francis’s death, William returned to Hazel Dell and lived out the rest of his life. He died in 1919 at age 85.

Hazel Dell remained in the Fulkerson family until 1989. The current owners, Fred and Brenda Nolan, purchased the home in 1995, and it was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1998.

Tuesday is my birthday and it’s also Abraham Lincoln’s I

f you grow up in Illinois sharing a birthday with our state’s martyred saint, expect to be thoroughly indoctrinated in Lincoln lore.

When I was a kid, I read every Lincoln biography in the school library, had a picture of Honest Abe thumb tacked to my bedroom bulletin board and could rattle off Lincoln trivia the way other boys can recite baseball statistics.

When I was 8, I wanted to go to Gettysburg -- not Disney World.

Other states have nicknamed themselves after their crops, heritage or natural attributes.

Illinois, on the other hand, is the only one that identifies itself with a person - thanks to state Sen. Fred Hart of Streator who in 1955 sponsored legislation designating the state as the “Land of Lincoln.”

Here in Springfield, Lincoln has been given almost messianic qualities -- Preserver of the Union, Liberator of the Slaves.

In many ways, Lincoln is the glue that holds together the state’s identity.

I’ve visited 47 states and lived in six. Of all of the places I’ve been, Illinois’ seems the most lacking in pride. That doesn’t mean it isn’t a nice place to live. It is just that our identity is more fragmented.

Symbols are an important part of identity. Texas has the Alamo. Pennsylvania has the Liberty Bell and Colorado the Rockies.

And Illinois? Well, we have Lincoln.

Ask a Texan where she’s from and she’ll say “Texas.”

Ask the same question of an Illinoisan and you more than likely will hear: “Chicago,” “the suburbs” or “downstate.”

Illinois has long been a divided state with a political heritage that would make Al Capone blush.

And culturally the divide is even greater. Folks

in the northeastern Guest Column part of the state live a life more akin to BY SCOTT REEDER residents of New York City than their compatriots in Galesburg, Moline or Alton.

Deep Southern Illinois feels like rural Kentucky. And central Illinois has a culture akin to that of Indiana or Iowa. The civic glue that binds the state is weak.

But Lincoln has become the touchstone that joins Illinoisans. His life reflects the contradictions of our state.

His most famous act -- the Emancipation Proclamation -- was the classic Illinois political move.

It freed slaves only in areas controlled by the Confederacy -- but not in areas under union control.

It looked high-minded and statesman like.

But the proclamation’s immediate value was as a public relations ploy.

Secretary of State William Seward said, at the time, “We show our sympathy with slavery by emancipating slaves where we cannot reach them and holding them in bondage where we can set them free.”

An Illinois politician motivated by public relations rather than public policy?

Tell us it is not true.

More than 150 years after Lincoln’s death much of what happens in Springfield still has more to do with perception than reality. Look no further than Mike Madigan, Rod Blagojevich or Bruce Rauner.

But somehow, I don’t think history will be as kind to them as it is to Lincoln.

JERSEY COUNTY JOURNAL

Revisiting the founding era for lessons learned I

have been asked by the Kewanee (IL) Library, near my residence in central Illinois, to lead discussions on “Revisiting the Founding Era.� What lessons might there be for us today, and what might we do today to honor those who made our nation possible?

Library director Barbara Love was awarded one of a very few grants from a New York City foundation to explore the topic. Over the coming six weeks, I will sit in the moderator’s chair at sessions in the library, and in classes at the local community college, high school and state prison.

I am a political scientist, yet have always enjoyed history, though I am not expert in the Revolutionary Era. To prepare, I just finished “American Creation,� by Joseph Ellis, author of the best-selling “Founding Brothers.�

The Founders, led by Adams, Washington, Jefferson, Franklin, Hamilton, Madison and of course others, were not demigods. They were indeed true radicals, intelligent, imperfect.

Their audacity was breathtaking—a tiny band of disparate colonies of barely 3 million people taking on the world’s mightiest military.

Nor was there consensus in the America colonies. Ellis estimates that only one-third of the colonists supported the Revolutionary cause; one-third, opposed, and one-third sat on the fence.

General George Washington lacked the troops to confront the world’s most powerful military machine frontally. So, after several defeats, he played a defensive game from 1777 until 1780. The French, always happy to team up with opponents of their mortal adversary England, played a decisive role at Yorktown in 1781 in defeating the army of Cornwallis, causing the English to sue for peace.

Laboring under the woefully inadequate Articles of Confederation, the Founding Fathers convened a convention in 1787 to write a charter that would bind the new states more tightly and increase national power.

At the convention, there were basically three geo-political factions: New York and the Northeast; the slave-holding planter states led by Virginia, and the small states of New Jersey, Maryland and Delaware, which feared the big states would control all.

The leaders of the factions felt, however, that unification was more important than fundamental differences, so they compromised.

For example, Northern leaders, many of them fervent abolitionists, gave in on the slavery issue. As a result, Africans-Americans, mostly slaves, were not mentioned by name in the Constitution. These so-called “other persons� were counted as three-fifths of a person each for census purposes and allo-

cation of seats in Guest Column the new U.S. House. BY JIM NOWLAN Over Madison’s strenuous objections, big state leaders gave in to the small ones, granting every state two U.S. senators, a provision that appears unamendable in our Constitution.

And the issue of what to do with the estimated 800,000 American Indians, who stood in the way of white settler’s ravenous, irresistible hunger for their land, was left to future treaties with these tribal “foreign nations.�

Ellis considers the (mis)handling of the issues regarding slaves and Indians to be tragic compromises within an otherwise masterful creation.

But, were there any alternatives that would not have doomed the enactment of a Constitution?

No good alternatives come to my mind.

For Southern leaders, touching the slavery issue was a non-starter. As for the Indians, efforts by Washington in his first Administration to protect Indians by treaty were overrun, literally, by our forbears’ lust for the land.

Today, we would say the founders “kicked the can down the road� on these issues, and the consequences haunt us yet today.

So, any useful observations? First, humans are evolving animals. Simplistic stereotyping and “us versus them� views of the world, successful survival tactics in the past, are still with us, unfortunately.

Second, sometimes tragic compromise is apparently necessary, at least in the short run, with resolution of the resulting problems to be determined later.

What to do, today? Many AfricanAmericans and Indians are not assimilated into our majority white world. Maybe some don’t want to be; after all, ours is not a perfect world.

Thus far, our nation seems incapable of closing the big education and economic achievement gaps between whites and blacks, and many Indians live on reservations in what appear to be sorry conditions.

What to do? I don’t favor money reparations at this late date, nor simply throwing more money at the issues, not without sound strategies for positive change.

I have many thoughtful readers, based on email correspondence. So, I solicit ideas from readers that might enrich and inform the discussions I am to lead in Kewanee, Illinois.

Jerseyville, Illinois

The Foxes F

or the past several years, we have hosted a family of red foxes off and on in our unfenced back yard.

It started with a crippled female fox who showed up about three years ago, followed by her “boyfriend� a few months later, and then the entire family moved in, or so it seems.

I must admit that watching all this unfold has been fascinating. And my conclusion, after watching these beautiful creatures for a couple of years, is that their “reputation� is undeserved. I am referring to the belief that the fox is “cunning, sly, clever, sneaky and foxy.�

Sure, they could probably clean out your hen house in 24 hours, but there is a lot more things to like about these animals than to dislike.

First of all, the fox is not a “pack� animal similar to a dog or wolf; they don’t bond with a bunch of other foxes and gang-up on anybody. They tend to be “loners� but they apparently mate for life and both the male and female contribute to helping raise their offspring. I have watched the foxes in our backyard raise two litters over the past two years and it is indeed true that the male sticks around and interacts with the young ones until they are old enough to go out on their own, which is usually at about six months of age.

In our backyard situation, there were five kits as a result of the first pregnancy and four in the second. One kit did not survive for very long in the first litter, but the others made it to “adulthood� and moved on. As kits, the young ones were really rambunctious, racing around in circles, knocking

their parents over as they “rough-housed� and pouncing on each other, all in our backyard in the middle of the day. Both parents seemed to tolerate the rough-housing fairly well, although there were times when a particular kit was obviously being scolded. And of course, some in each litter were more assertive than others. The kits who were more refined seemed to get extra TLC from the parents.

It is said that foxes communicate with each other with barks, squeals and other noises—some 40 different sounds in all. We did not hear the full spectrum of their vocabulary but we did notice that when a car pulled up in the driveway, one or both parents would bark at their young ones in a high pitched yip and that sound always got their attention.

Foxes are omnivorous, meaning they eat both creatures and plants. As far as I am concerned, they can eat all the mice they want out there in the back yard.

They live in—you guessed it—fox holes and these fox holes are big enough to accommodate the entire family with several escape routes. One interesting side note is that while they are said to be monogamous, sometimes an “extra� female will live in the fox hole with the family, helping with “nanny� chores apparently. I am not sure how that relationship works out, frankly; I can see some “issues� with that deal.

Adult foxes are about the size of a medium-sized dog.

They have a pointed nose, thin legs and a huge, bushy tail that seems almost as long as the body. Usually they are reddish-brown, with dark trim on the legs and some

white on the chest and face.

They have a delicate, “PeterPan� way of walking but they are capable of running as fast as 45 miles per hour if necessary.

The thing I find most surprising about foxes is that in the wild, their life span is relatively short – typically only from two to five years.

In captivity, they live for more than ten years. It must be a tough life out there being a fox.

Note: As I am writing this article, a male fox is sitting in the back yard, just hanging out and enjoying the sunshine. Our dogs are behind a fence, barking their heads off at him; he is looking at them with distain. I have included his photograph with this article.

Jehovah’s Witnesses certainly debatable. Reconciliation tribunals, psychotherapy, and encounter groups are arguably all modern versions of confession. The flip side of confession is the Biblical injunction to tell others when they have sinned: “If your brother or sister sins, go and point out their fault, just between the two of you.� (Matthew 18:15 NIV) While it is easy to notice and point to the faults of others, we often chafe at the slightest perceived criticism, and instead of thanking the person for helping us to be a better person, we reject their critique. A periodic examination of one’s conscience and a willingness to confess one’s sins is healthy for the soul. Therefore, confess your sins and pray that you will be forgiven. – Christopher Simon

—John 20:23 NIV

e live in paradoxical times.

While many share the most intimate details of their life on social media for all the world to see, the practice of confession as a spiritual discipline has fallen by the wayside. In surveys of practicing Catholics, three-quarters of them “report that they never participate in the sacrament of Reconciliation or that they do so less than once a year.� (Center for Applied Research in the Apostolate) Among mainstream Protestant denominations, confession as a ritual is practiced only in the Lutheran church, and one wonders how often Christians of any sect adhere to the Biblical injunction to “confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed.�

(James 5:16 NIV) Whether as a society we are more or less confessional than in times past is

Capitol recap: $15 minimum wage is first major legislation of 101st General Assembly

Illinois Senate Assistant Majority Leader Kimberly Lightford, a Maywood Democrat, said the chamber is ready to push ahead with a bill to increase the state’s minimum hourly wage from $8.25 to $15 over an undefined period of years.

The only rate structure mentioned at a Senate Labor Committee hearing on Wednesday, Jan. 30, was a $1 increase to the $8.25 rate for each of the next six years, then a 75-cent increase in the seventh year. Lightford said the rate would be phased in by 2025.

Business interests also preferred a regional rollout of the tax increase. In Oregon and New York, high costs of living areas have a minimum wage that is higher than in more rural areas. Lightford said this would be discussed, but she was not sure it would be permissible per the Illinois constitution.

Senator Dave Koehler, a Peoria Democrat, raised the idea of regional tax breaks for employers in lower cost-of-living areas to counteract the $15 minimum wage.

The committee also heard testimony from employers who said a $15 minimum wage would be a “job killer,� and a nursing home advocacy group proposed a measure to increase the state’s reimbursement rate to Medicaid facilities as the wage increases.

The Illinois Association of Park Districts, small business lobbyists and the Illinois Restaurant Association all raised concerns that the hike could mean layoffs for minimum wage workers as well.

While the group agreed to several points of discussion, the clock was ticking for the interest groups to get their preferred language in the bill, as Gov. J.B. Pritzker wants the bill on his desk to sign prior to his budget address scheduled for Feb. 20.

DIGITAL DAYS: If a bill mandating five hours of direct teacherstudent supervision becomes law this session, schools would no longer be able to count digital day alternatives to snow days as an official school day.

The Senate Education Committee advanced the bill unanimously Tuesday, Jan. 29, while agreeing to discuss more calendar flexibility for school districts.

State Sen. Jennifer Bertino-Tarrant (D-Shorewood), the bill’s lead sponsor and Education Committee chair, said she understood that more flexibility is needed for school districts and was committed to working toward it. But she warned of the “wild, wild west� created by the repeal of the five-hour mandate. “Right now a district could choose to have four days of school in a year,� she said.

If the bill passes both houses and is signed by the governor, the fivehour mandate would go into effect immediately. Superintendents, many whose districts were employing digital days due to the recent extreme cold, had concerns about the confusion this would cause for the current school year.

GOVERNMENT EFFICIENCY COMMISSION: Woodstock Republican Rep. Steve Reick wants a private-sector commission to examine the spending habits and management practices of state agencies by minimizing redundancies in funds the state already allocates.

His legislation, House Joint Resolution 6 and House Bill 275, would create an 18-member commission to comb through reports from the auditor general’s office and recommend ways to reduce spending, boost performance and adapt management strategies for state agencies. The group would be funded through private donations.

Commission members would be chosen by each of the four legislative leaders and Democratic Gov. J.B. Pritzker.

Among the proposal’s detractors is the Center for Tax and Budget Accountability Executive Director Ralph Martire. The Center is a nonpartisan think tank that “promote[s] social and economic justice for everyone,� according to its website.

Martire said the commission’s organization as a 501(c)(4) could allow dark money to manipulate the process.

HOUSE RULES COMMITTEE: The five-member Illinois House Rules Committee will maintain its power over the legislative process for the 101st General Assembly despite objections from Republican members of the committee this week.

Illinois House Deputy Minority Leader Tom Demmer, a Dixon Republican and member of the House Rules Committee, said the three Democrats on the panel have the power to hold any bills in the committee indefinitely for any reason.

Democratic Rep. Greg Harris said the process is old, efficient and necessary to sort the 6,000-plus bills that are filed each year – and it originated with Republicans in the 1990s. “Thousands and thousands and thousands of bills are referred out to other committees,� Harris said. “I think it’s sort of a solution in search of a problem to find, out of 6,000 bills, the two or three that do not advance and say “Aha! Something

is going on.�

One day after the rules passed committee by a 3-2 vote, the House voted 73-42 along party lines Tuesday, Jan. 29, to keep the rules in place with only minor adjustments.

GOVERNMENT REFORM BILLS: A pair of Republican lawmakers filed government reform bills this week.

Rep. Margo McDermed of Mokena introduced a bill to ban any retired lawmaker from registering as a lobbyist, or receiving or making payments as a lobbyist, for one year or the remainder of their term — whichever is longer.

GOP Rep. David McSweeney of Barrington Hills put forth a bill to end to lawmaker pensions for new members after Nov. 3, 2020.

House committee assignments have not been handed out, so both McSweeney’s and McDermed’s bills are stuck in the powerful, Democratcontrolled House Rules Committee.

McDermed said it’s possible her bill never makes it out of the committee.

COLLEGE ILLINOIS: Eric Zarnikow, executive director of the Illinois Student Assistance Commission, an agency that administers the program known as College Illinois, urged Illinois lawmakers this week to give the “full faith and credit backing� to the state college savings program.

He said the backing, which would give the program’s debt obligations the same status as those of general obligation bonds, may be the only way to restore public confidence in the program By 2011, Zarnikow said, rising college costs and other market factors caused the program to rack up a $536 million “unfunded liability� – the difference between its assets and expected earnings on the one hand, and the anticipated cost of all its current obligations on the other.

Officials expect that by 2026, the program will need an infusion of about $81 million from the state in order to meet its “moral obligation.�

The Tuesday, Jan. 29, meeting was for informational purposes only and no action was taken.

REDISTRICTING PROPOSAL: For the second consecutive legislation, CHANGE Illinois is proposing a constitutional amendment that would change how the state’s political boundaries are drawn.

The coalition of interest groups has been working since 2012 to change Illinois’ redistricting process, which occurs every 10 years, after each U.S. Census. The next redistricting period will be in 2022.

CHANGE Illinois proposes no longer allowing the General Assembly and governor to decide the boundaries of districts. Instead, those decisions would be made by a commission that “demographically, politically and geographically� represents the prairie state.

The group’s twin measures, sponsored by Sen. Julie Morrison (D-Deerfield) and Rep. Ryan Spain (R-Peoria), would place map-drawing under the purview of the state Supreme Court. The chief justice and most senior justice “who is not elected from the same political party� would together select 16 citizens to form a commission — seven Democrats, seven Republicans and two independents. It would require state Supreme Court justices to have political party affiliations.

The redistricting revamp would require a constitutional amendment, which carries a high burden of approval to be successful. Both chambers of the General Assembly must give their support by a threefifths majority before it can go to voters. Then, 60 percent approval by voters is needed.

COMPTROLLER’S WORDS OF CAUTION: Illinois Comptroller Susana Mendoza is imploring the General Assembly to be realistic with revenue projections this year to avoid adding to the state’s backlog of

unpaid bills.

A compromise budget passed last year was hailed as balanced by many lawmakers, but will actually add $1.5 billion to $2 billion to the state’s backlog, which was estimated about $7.3 billion as of Thursday, Jan. 31 One year ago, the General Assembly passed Mendoza’s Debt Transparency Act, mandating state agencies to provide accurate monthly reports on liabilities, including the escalating cost of interest penalties. This allowed budgeteers to identify which agencies lacked adequate appropriations to process their bills and account for it in negotiations.

Even with the adequate debt information, Mendoza said, a budget cannot be balanced without accurate revenue projections.

Shortfalls in last year’s budget come from various sources, including false revenues from the non-existent sale of the James R. Thompson Center in Chicago. It also included savings from proposals, such as a pension buyout plan, that will potentially fall short for the current fiscal year, the comptroller’s news release said.

Other key findings Mendoza listed in her report include: Q The unpaid bill backlog conWLQXHV WR IRUFH WKH 2IÂżFH RI WKH Comptroller into crisis management, impede timely bill processing, cause instability for state programs, and creates unnecessary and costly late payment interest penalties.

Q *LYHQ WKDW WKH ¿VFDO \HDU budget also failed to address the curUHQW EDFNORJ RI ELOOV WDNLQJ VLJQL¿FDQW steps in fiscal year 2019 to pay down the backlog of unpaid bills – or even keep it static – is impossible.

Q Temporary tools to manage the backlog granted under the current budget do not resolve systemic budgetary issues. Dedicated funding is needed to lower the bill backlog.

STEP INCREASES FOR WORKERS: Illinois AFSCME union employees will receive their scheduled and long-withheld pay step increases starting in April, a spokesperson for Gov. J.B. Pritzker announced Thursday, Jan. 31.

Step increases are required by state law to be paid to employees in their first eight to 10 years because they start at a below-market rate as a savings to government. Former Gov. Bruce Rauner halted them in 2015 when AFSCME’s last contract expired.

Pritzker promised to pay the step increases – which were mandated to be paid by court order anyway – in his first week in office.

The increase is expected to cost about $50 million, and Pritzker’s office said employees will begin seeing this reflected in their paychecks in the first half of April, although some agencies could require more time to adjust paychecks.

OPIOIDS ALTERNATIVE:

Patients over the age of 21 who are prescribed opioids will have temporary access to medical marijuana as an alternative treatment after the state’s Opioid Alternative Pilot Program began accepting patients Thursday, Jan. 31.

Under the program, patients must obtain a physician’s certification of a condition which could require the prescription of an opioid. Such a prescription could be taken to a dispensary to receive medical marijuana for a fixed period of time.

The Illinois Department of Public Health’s rules regulating the program can be found on their website at www.dph.illinois.gov.

The bill went live just a week after downstate Democratic Sen. Andy Manar, of Bunker Hill, and Chicago Democrats Sen. Heather Steans and Rep. Kelly Cassidy hosted a Springfield town hall to discuss the legalization of cannabis recreationally.

Gov. J.B. Pritzker has said he would embrace such a proposal.

TERM LIMITS FOR LEADERS? State Rep. Tom Demmer, a Dixon Republican, has filed a bill to limit terms for legislative leaders – such as powerful House Speaker Mike Madigan – in the General Assembly.

Demmer filed an amendment to the Illinois Constitution on Thursday, Jan. 31, to limit the number of years any lawmaker could serve as speaker of the House of Representatives, president of the Senate, minority leader of the House or minority leader of the Senate.

Per the amendment, legislative leaders would be limited to serving for a total of eight years in any one position and 12 years combined in two or more positions.

Speaker Madigan is the longestserving state house speaker in U.S. history and was first elected in 1983.

The powerful House Rules Committee headed by one of Madigan’s main lieutenants – Rep. Greg Harris (D-Chicago) – controls the flow of any bill filed in the House and would have the power to prevent its committee hearing.

SENATE RULES APPROVED: While the rules for the Illinois House’s 101st General Assembly were contested then approved on partisan lines, things went more smoothly in the Senate on Thursday, Jan. 31.

The upper chamber added a provision in its rules to allow any senator to file a committee amendment to a bill that provides appropriations for state spending. Previously, only the bill’s sponsor or a member of the committee considering the bill could file such an amendment.

State Sen. Dale Righter, a Mattoon Republican, said he was thankful for the amendment, which he said should make things “interesting.�

Senate President John Cullerton, a Chicago Democrat, said he wanted to “highlight the fact that we handle

things differently in the Senate� than in the House.

PRITZKER APPOINTMENTS: Gov. J.B. Pritzker announced more appointments and agency heads this week. They include state agency directors: Ngozi Ezike as director of the Illinois Department of Public Health, and Jaime E. Martinez as director of the Illinois Department of Veterans’ Affairs.

Ezike is a board-certified internist and pediatrician who comes to IDPH from Cook County Health, where she has served for more than 15 years. Martinez currently serves as executive director of Illinois Joining Forces, a nationally-recognized statewide nonprofit and public-private partnership that brings services and support to veterans at the community level. He is a 26-year Army combat veteran.

Both appointments will require Senate approval.

Pritzker also appointed Ramon

Gardenhire as his deputy chief of staff for policy. Gardenhire currently serves as the vice president of policy for the AIDS Foundation of Chicago, overseeing AFC’s advocacy and policy work at the federal, state and local level.

Pat Collier will serve as Pritzker’s deputy chief of staff for federal affairs. Collier previously served as policy director on Pritzker’s campaign and was the director of government affairs for the Center for American Progress, a progressive Washington think tank.

Capitol News Illinois is a nonprofit news service operated by the Illinois Press Foundation that provides coverage of state government to newspapers throughout Illinois. The mission of Capitol News Illinois is to provide credible and unbiased coverage of state government to the more than 400 daily and weekly newspapers that are members of the Illinois Press Association.

By KYLE CUNNINGHAM Jersey County Journal The Jersey High School Boys’ basketball team welcomed in the Carrollton Hawks on Tuesday evening in what would prove to be a high scoring affair.

Coming into play, the Panthers sported a 10-16 record and were in the midst of a three game losing streak. That skid, however, would be extinguished as Jersey poured in a season high of 84 points.

The team got things started early by going on a dominant 22-8 run. The Hawks were able to find their offensive attack as they were able to notch 22 points.

Meanwhile, Jersey’s offensive prowess did not falter in the slightest as they countered with 25 points of their own to take a 47-30 lead at the half. Carrollton would gain two points in the third with a 16-14 advantage. The Panthers then slammed the door shut on the Hawks in the final frame with a 23-17 swing to capture the win.

News items from the pages of Jersey County Journal

Feb. 5, 2014 Accounts and finance commissioner Yvonne Hartmann was reinstated to her seat on the Jerseyville City Council Tuesday night. Before the city council could take any motion on the minutes of the previous meeting, attorney Thomas Kelty, representing Hartmann, called a point of order to reinstate the commissioner whose seat was declared vacant in November 2013.

Next time Robert Hartmann goes to court on his felony criminal charges, there will likely be two new sets of attorneys arguing the case. Hartmann is awaiting a retrial on a felony DUI charge and later will be tried on charges of solicitation of arson and solicitation of insurance fraud.

On Monday, Hartmann’s defense attorney, David Leefers, filed a motion to withdraw as legal counsel on both of the pending cases. Then, Tuesday, Jersey County State’s Attorney Ben Goetten filed to have a special prosecutor assigned to the cases.

After four-and-a-half years promoting economic growth and bringing business incentives to Jersey County, Jersey County Business Association’s chief executive officer will retire in April. Alan Gilmore, CEO of the JCBA since 2009, said economic development was his main goal when he first accepted the job in Jersey County.

Feb. 4, 2019 Three counties are reeling from the effects of a burglary spree that transpired

in three counties - Pike, Calhoun and Jersey - over the weekend. Jersey County Chief Deputy Sheriff Kevin Klaas said the department was notified of the attempted break-in at the Bank of Calhoun County’s Fieldon Facility at 8:15 a.m. Saturday by employees of the bank. From Fieldon, the perpetrators made their way into Jerseyville and hit the 16 West Quick Shop and Laundromat.

In these trying economic times, several area churches have become involved in the Angel Food Ministry, a non-profit, non-denominational organization that is dedicated to providing financial support in the form of food relief to communities throughout the country. AFM offers a medium-sized box of food for $30 that contains top quality food staples from every food group, including chicken or beef, milk, eggs, vegetables and other nutritious items.

After thoroughly discussing with contractors, architects and environmental consultants for 150 minutes, the Southwestern Community Unit School District No. 9 school board approved allowing its architect to bid out for work on the bareminimum ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) requirements needed to be completed at the high school to comply to state and federal standards. The district is required to meet ADA accessibility standards since it would have two students in wheelchairs who would be attending the high school beginning in August.

Insects and the cold

Ken JOHNSON U of I Extension With the recent cold snap/ polar vortex many people have been wondering about how it’s going to affect the insect populations. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, or perhaps good news (depending on your thoughts on insects) but, for the most part, most insects will survive just fine. Insects use a variety of strategies to survive through the winter.

The first strategy some insects will use is to avoid the cold altogether. Some insects that we find in Illinois won’t survive our freezing winter temperatures. So, instead of trying to make it through the winter here, they’ll survive elsewhere. An example of this would be monarch butterflies. As we approach fall, monarchs will begin to migrate south and will eventually reach Mexico where they will overwinter. As temperatures begin to warm again come spring, they will begin migrating north and

their children or grandchildren will arrive in Illinois.

Others, like armyworms and potato leafhoppers, survive in Southern states and will migrate north as temperatures begin to warm.

For those insects that stick around, low temperatures aren’t necessarily the problem; the formation of ice crystals in their bodies is what makes survival difficult. If ice crystals rapidly form in their bodies, their cells will burst, resulting in damage and likely death.

Some insects, like woolly bear caterpillars, will avoid this by using chemicals to control the way in which and where they freeze and therefore minimize damage to their cells (these insects are called freeze tolerant).

The other strategy insects that stick around for the winter use to survive is to produce chemicals in their bodies to avoid freezing altogether (these insects are called freeze intolerant). As temperatures begin to cool, these insects will start cre-

ating anti-freeze chemicals.

These chemicals allow the insects bodies’ to supercool (reach temperatures below freezing, 32°F). Therefore the insects won’t freeze until they reach their supercooling point. Some insects that take this approach include Japanese beetles (supercooling point is 19°F), emerald ash borer (supercooling point is -13°F), and codling moth (supercooling point is -10°F).

Just because temperatures don’t hit the supercooling point of an insect it doesn’t mean some won’t be killed.

Perhaps the insect people are most excited about being ‘wiped out’ by the cold is emerald ash borer. A study by the U.S. Forest Service showed that 5 percent of the insects die at 0°F, 34 percent at -10°F, 79 percent at -20°F and 98 percent at -30°F. That being said it’s important to note that emerald ash borer doesn’t overwinter in exposed areas.

While air temperatures in many places in Illinois got

colder than the above supercooling points, most insects will overwinter in protected areas where temperatures did not get nearly as cold.

For example, white grubs (like Japanese beetles) in the soil will not be exposed to extremely cold temperatures because the soil will insulate them. Others will seek shelter under leaf litter (codling moth), under bark (emerald ash borer), or even in your home. All of these will provide some protection from cold temperatures. Snow is also an excellent insulator, and all of our snow offered another layer of protection.

While the brutally cold temperatures may have seemed like they lasted forever, in reality, they only lasted a relatively short time and likely didn’t drop temperatures in these protected areas low enough to ‘wipe out’ these pest insects.

While the cold temperatures we’ve had have likely killed some insects, come spring it should be business as usual.

JERSEY COUNTY JOURNAL

Jerseyville, Illinois

Illinois State police announce the use of Roadside Safety Checks Illinois State Police (ISP) District 18 Interim Commander, Lieutenant William Guard, announces the ISP will conduct Roadside Safety Checks (RSCs) in Jersey County during the month of March. The use of RSCs combine with a strong sense of public awareness and enforcement in order to save lives of the motoring public.

The ISP has zero tolerance for impaired driving in Illinois. Officers

working the detail will be watchful for drivers who are operating vehicles in an unsafe manner, driving with a suspended or revoked driverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s license, transporting open alcoholic beverages, and most importantly: Q Driving Under the Influence (DUI); Q Safety Belt and Child Restraint use; Q Speeding; Q Distracted Driving; and,

Q All Illinois Vehicle Code and Criminal Violations. Alcohol and drug impairment is a factor in more than 30 percent of all fatal motor vehicle crashes in Illinois, and throughout the U.S., nearly 10,000 people die each year due to alcohol-impaired driving. RSCs are designed to keep our roads safe by taking dangerous DUI offenders off the road. This project is funded through the Illinois Department of Transportation.
