New effort launched to educate students about danger of impaired driving A new initiative spearheaded by the McHenry County Regional Office of Education will help teach high-school students about the dangers of impaired and distracted driving. Through federal DrugFree Communities grant funding, all 14 high schools in the ROE’s jurisdiction are receiving toolkits to educate students about alcohol and drug prevention and distracted driving. Each toolkit includes items such as “fatal vision” goggles to simulate impaired driving, games, activity mats, multimedia materials and other educational materials. Each toolkit costs $10,000, and will be shipped directly to the high schools by the vendor, Inncorp Ltd., based in Verona, Wis. “These kits will help our high schools proactively instill smart and safe deci-
sion-making skills in their students, particularly when it comes to impaired and distracted driving,” Regional Superintendent Diana Hartmann said. “Integrating these resources into health classes, driver education and other programs will give students potentially life-saving understanding of the risks associated with impaired driving.” The ROE will be partnering with the districts to offer free training and professional development to make the most of the toolkits, Hartmann said. Traffic crashes are a leading cause of death for teenagers 15 to 18 years old, according to National Highway Traffic Safety Administration data; in 2021, almost 20% of teen drivers involved in fatal crashes had been drinking. Likewise, almost 10% of teen drivers involved in fatal crashes in 2021 were driving distracted.

Conservation Trees for Troops adds special meaning to District events Richardson Christmas Tree Farm season
Wendy Richardson (at center) of Richardson Christmas Tree Farm, Spring Grove, assists military families in picking out the perfect tree after a Trees for Troops program drop-off at Naval Station Great Lakes.
Thanks to the generosity of loyal customers, the family behind Richardson Adventure Farm and Richardson Christmas Tree Farm has been able to donate hundreds of trees over the last 18 years to families of U.S. military troops. It is among the most rewarding aspects of festivities at the tree farm each holiday season, said George and Wendy Richardson, who operate the farm along with George’s brother, Robert, Robert’s wife, Carol, George’s son, Ryan, and Ryan’s wife, Kristen. “Freedom isn’t free. We appreciate living in the U.S. and all that the military does to help keep our country free,” George Richardson said. “This is a great way to deliver some Christmas spirit to those actively serving in our armed forces, and to say thank you. We’ve been big supporters of Trees for Troops since its inception.” “Farms throughout the U.S participate and FedEx donates over 250,000 miles of trucking every season to pick the trees up and
distribute them — this year to 93 bases,” added Wendy Richardson. She chairs the board of the national Christmas Spirit Foundation, which launched Trees for Troops in 2005, and this year anticipates delivering its 300,000th tree. It’s all possible because of contributions from generous donors. In the Richardsons’ case, many visitors drop money toward the program throughout the Adventure Farm season each fall. Others purchase trees outright while visiting the tree farm, and these are included in the shipment going to Naval Station Great Lakes in early December. This year, the cost to do so is $75 plus tax per tree, the Richardsons said. “People can donate money at our farm or buy a tree at our farm or click through to treesfortroops.org and make a donation there,” George Richardson said. Tree farm hours this year will be 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Friday, Nov. 24, through Sunday, Dec. 10, at the farm, 9407 Richardson Road, Spring
Grove. Cut-your-own tree activities will end Dec. 3, but pre-cuts will remain available until Dec. 10. Wendy Richardson said she is proud to play a key role in the foundation that started Trees for Troops. The program was honored at the White House in Washington, D.C., in 2012, and in 2017 the foundation received the Spirit of Hope Award at a ceremony at the Pentagon, which she and George attended. The program benefits troops serving with the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, Coast Guard, Space Force and National Guard, she said. “We look forward to greeting visitors to our tree farm, and to another great year for Trees for Troops,” she said. “It is truly a great way to spread holiday cheer to people who sacrifice a great deal in service to our nation.” Details about available tree varieties, pricing, gift barn offerings and more are available by clicking on the Richardson Christmas Tree Farm button at richardsonfarm.com.

Advocates hail regulatory ‘earthquake’ as state slashes requested gas rate increases
Company profits cut; low-income customers set to receive new discounts By Andrew Adams
CAPITOL NEWS ILLINOIS
50.8 percent and cut Nicor’s request by 30.3 percent. For Peoples Gas, it was a 25 percent reduction, and for its sister company North Shore, regulators cut the request by 34 percent. While advocates hailed the ICC’s decisions as a victory, utilities were wary. “My initial reaction is that I’m concerned,” Matthew Tomc, who oversees regulatory affairs for Ameren Illinois, told Capitol News Illinois. Tomc said that once Ameren staff fully reviews the ICC decision, they will consider requesting a rehearing to challenge the ICC’s conclusions. Other companies involved in the cases indicated they were reviewing the decisions. “Natural gas remains the most affordable energy source for winter-residential heating and is the main fuel source used by manufacturers in Illinois,” Nicor spokesperson Jennifer Golz said in a statement. “Nicor Gas provides an affordable energy source, which is more important now than ever with families facing rising costs for everything. resources as an energy.” Nicor and Peoples Gas have not released cost estimates under the new rates approved Nov. 16. But downstate Ameren Illinois says costs will remain similar to last winter, echoing claims made by Peoples Gas earlier this year.
Regulators at the Illinois Commerce Commission have unanimously approved rate hikes for four major natural gas utilities, but the little-known regulatory body’s decision was perhaps more notable for what it rejected. The five-member board flexed its regulatory muscle, slashing the utilities’ requested rate increases by as much as 50 percent. “This was an earthquake in Illinois utility regulation,” Abe Scarr, director of consumer advocacy group Illinois PIRG told Capitol News Illinois after the Nov. 16 meeting. Scarr and PIRG were among the consumer advocates asking for greater regulatory oversight of the natural gas industry ahead of the requested rate increase from the four utilities that collectively serve 98 percent of Illinois’ gas customers—Nicor Gas, Ameren Illinois, Peoples Gas and North Shore Gas. Rates will still rise next year, but not nearly as much as they would have if the commission had approved the utilities’ initial requests. The commissioners instead sided with consumer advocates—rejecting several recommendations from the ICC’s own staff—in several key areas, including profit rates, low-income discounts and spending oversight. Commissioners lowered Ameren’s initial ask by about Spending oversight,
consumer impacts In general, the ICC’s five commissioners reduced the companies’ requests for infrastructure spending, citing a lack of evidence that increased rates were necessary to maintain system safety. But the commission was particularly of one company’s spending choices. Peoples Gas, which operates in the city of Chicago, has been highly criticized for its ongoing system modernization program, which critics have said is plagued by regular budget overruns and is often behind schedule. Thursday’s ICC decision not only reduced Peoples Gas’ overall infrastructure spending request, but it also took a strong oversight step for the company’s pipeline replacement program. The ICC paused all spending on the program for the next year and ordered a new ICC investigation into the program. “We look forward to actively participating in future proceedings and demonstrating how our energy delivery system is critical to Chicago’s clean energy future,” Peoples Gas spokesperson David Schwartz said in a Thursday statement. “We are pleased the Commission shares our concern about safety.” Scarr, a longtime critic of the program, praised the decision. “This program was clearly problematic, literally since it got started. It stumbled out
of the gates and there’s been so many investigations,” Scarr said. “For years, decision-makers have looked the other way, but they didn’t today and that’s a huge deal.” Consumer impacts have been one of the most hotly debated elements of the four concurrent rate cases. Last year, the ICC directed utilities to propose a new system to offer lower energy rates for low-income customers. These low-income rate designs were one of the areas of focus of Karen Lusson, a lawyer with the National Consumer Law Center who advocated for the plan that the ICC eventually adopted, overruling administrative judges’ recommendations. “In previous rate case orders, the commission never specifically assessed how affordable or unaffordable rates are for customers,” Lusson said. The plan will offer discounts to those with incomes below three times the federal poverty limit, with greater discounts for those making less money. Discounts would apply to an entire customer bill and would be as high as 83 percent for Peoples Gas customers and 75 percent customers of other companies, according to Lusson. These discounts are slated to go into effect in October 2024. Ameren’s Tomc said he was worried about the program’s potential impacts on customers who are not
low-income.
Profits slashed The commission lowered the expected rate hikes by leveraging one of its most powerful tools: deciding companies’ profits through their “return on equity” or ROE. Ameren and Nicor both requested ROE rates above 10 percent, while Peoples Gas requested a 9.9 percent figure. But consumer advocates pushed back on those asks. For example, the Citizens Utility Board, one of several groups that argued for lower rates, requested a range centered on 9.5 percent for Ameren and Peoples Gas and 9.4 percent for Nicor. But in a surprising move, the Commission set rates in the cases at or below that recommendation. Nicor Gas will operate with a 9.51 percent ROE, and Ameren will operate with a 9.44 percent ROE. Peoples Gas and North Shore Gas will operate with a 9.38 percent ROE. Sarah Moskowitz, CUB’s executive director, said the move has both consumer and climate implications. “They (the ICC) sent a strong message today that they are looking out for the interests of utility customers and understand that we’re going to have to plan for a clean energy transition and that utilities can no longer dodge that issue,” Moskowitz said. The decisions Nov. 16 also began a process for the state
deciding what role natural gas should play in Illinois’ clean energy transition. Each gas company involved in the cases is set to participate in a series of “future of gas” hearings next year that could help shape the industry’s fate in Illinois. “As the state embarks on a journey toward a 100 percent clean energy economy, the gas system’s operations will not continue to exist in its current form,” ICC Chairman Doug Scott said in a statement. “Identifying how our gas and electric systems can adapt to meet these goals, and what specific actions should be taken to achieve them, will be an important task for the Commission moving forward.” That statement came a few hours after Scott told utility representatives and advocates that the companies had failed to take that transition into account during the rate cases. In the Peoples Gas case, for instance, Scott noted that the company “signaled that they are not currently working toward the electrification goals of the state.” He made similar comments about Nicor and Ameren Illinois and cited it as reasoning for cutting some of the companies’ spending. Climate advocacy groups such as the Illinois Clean Jobs Coalition celebrated the decision, issuing a statement that the ICC’s decision indicates “there’s a new sheriff in town.”

Lake County announces lighted trails for fall and winter seasons Struggling to enjoy nature with the earlier sunsets? Explore two Lake County forest preserves under the soft glow of solar-lit trails. Small solar lights guide the way so hikers, skiers and snowshoers can get some evening exercise along the 1.3-mile fitness trail at Old School Forest Preserve in Mettawa, and along a hilly 1.65-mile section of the Millennium Trail adjacent to the Winter Sports Area at Lakewood Forest Preserve in Wauconda. “Walking the trails after the sun goes down provides a unique experience in the forest preserves,” said Angelo Kyle, president of the Lake County Forest Preserves. “Our data show that forest preserve visitors are using the trails more than ever for recreation and as a way to improve their wellbeing.” The solar lights serve as a guide along the trails.
Visitors are encouraged to bring a flashlight. Though regular preserve hours are 6:30 am to sunset, the illuminated trails and adjacent parking lots will remain open until 9 pm daily through March 10. Bicycles and horses are not permitted on the solar-lit trails after sunset. Dogs are allowed but must be leashed. To access the lighted trails, park at Lakewood’s Winter Sports Area located on the east side of Fairfield Road just south of Route 176, or at Old School’s main entrance lot located on the east side of St. Mary’s Road south of Route 176. Lake County Forest Preserves Police Rangers regularly patrol the areas.

Lawmakers have approved a proposal that would allow companies to develop new nuclear power generation in Illinois for the first time since 1987. House Bill 2473 does not entirely lift the 36-year-old moratorium on nuclear construction. Instead, it creates a regulatory structure for the construction of small modular nuclear reactors, or SMRs. The bill limits the nameplate capacity of such reactors to 300 megawatts, about onethird the size of the smallest of the six existing nuclear power plants in Illinois. It also requires the state to perform a study that will inform rules for regulating SMRs, which will be adopted by regulators at the Illinois Emergency Management Agency by January 2026. Proponents of the measure say it is a step to make the ongoing transition away from fossil fuels more reliable for customers throughout the state, while opponents warn the unproven technology comes with safety risks and the potential for cost overruns. The bill passed with bipartisan support in the Senate, 44-7, and the House, 98-8. The opposition came exclusively from Democrats.

Gov. JB Pritzker said in a statement that he would sign the bill. He worked with lawmakers on the new language of the new bill after vetoing a broader measure this summer. Leadership of the Illinois AFL-CIO umbrella labor organization released a statement, calling the policy an “important for our state’s economy and our clean energy future.” It echoed a release from the Illinois Manufacturers Association, an industry advocacy group that testified in support of the proposal several times, saying that it would allow the state to “continue leading in energy and manufacturing innovation.” The legislation’s sponsors, Sen. Sue Rezin, R-Morris, and Rep. Lance Yednock, D-Ottawa, said the bill has the potential to bolster Illinois’ electric reliability as intermittent sources like wind and solar begin to make up a larger portion of the state’s energy output. “In order to reach our clean energy goals, we may have to invest in more nuclear generated carbon-free energy,” Yednock said. “The policy does not subtract from the growth of wind and solar energy; it could be an enhancement, as a potential use of small modular reactors could be to energize large manufacturers, therefore keeping more traditional new sources of energy for residential, small commercial customers and our future [electric vehicle] needs.” Rezin noted that she is particularly interested in the potential for SMRs to be developed at the sites of former coal plants in Illinois, avoiding the need to build new transmission lines, although that process could take many years. Because permitting nuclear energy takes many years at the federal level, the earliest a nuclear project could be brought online in Illinois would be in the 2030s.
about its implications. David Kraft, an outspoken critic of nuclear energy and head of the Chicago-based advocacy group Nuclear Energy Information Service, urged lawmakers at a Thursday committee meeting to reject the bill. Kraft said he was concerned about the lack of existing SMR installations and the unproven nature of the technology. While some nuclear reactors of this scale do exist in other countries, no commercial SMRs have ever been built in the United States. “This isn’t an energy policy, it’s a Las Vegas craps shoot,” he said during the committee hearing. In a follow-up interview, Kraft said that SMRs bring with them security concerns, as the smaller installations have different staffing requirements than traditional reactors and use a more highly enriched type of uranium. This relative abundance of this uranium, according to Kraft, could incentivize the further proliferation of nuclear weapons. Some environmentalists also lined up against the bill, worrying that investment in nuclear could take away from investments into renewable energy technology. Sierra Club Illinois chapter director Jack Darin called nuclear energy “at best, a distraction.” Sierra Club was one of the main advocacy organizations that sought Pritzker’s veto of the previous bill. While the Sierra Club remained opposed to the updated version of the bill, the Illinois Environmental Council – which co-signed a letter requesting the August veto with the Sierra Club—adopted a neutral position on the new bill before it was approved on Thursday. Rep. Lilian Jimenez, D-Chicago, was one of the eight House Democrats who voted against the bill. She said that there had not been Environmental, enough study of the potential safety issues drawbacks of SMR developCritics of the bill and of ment in the state. nuclear power remain worried “Illinois has plenty of time
to assess the risks and costs before opening the door to these projects,” Jimenez said during floor debate. “I believe we should be focusing on that piece before taking this huge leap and this huge step.”
Industry issues Since 2016, five other state legislatures have either repealed or weakened their bans on nuclear construction. Counting Illinois, bans on nuclear construction remain on the books in 11 states. Several of the states that have lifted their bans in recent years have done so to pave the way for SMR technology. But the biggest player in that industry has seen several upsets in recent weeks. As lawmakers debated the bill, NuScale Power—the only company with a federally approved SMR design—announced that it was canceling its highly watched “Carbon Free Power Project” in Utah, which would have been the first commercial project with a NuScale reactor. The project’s cancelation comes after months of falling stock prices and criticism from trading firms. Still, its leaders say the company will continue with its other projects, which are at various steps of regulation and planning. “NuScale will continue with our other domestic and international customers to bring our American SMR technology to market and grow the U.S. nuclear manufacturing base,” NuSCale CEO John Hopkins said in a Wednesday news release. Rezin noted that “there’s a lot to learn” from NuScale’s canceled project, but hopes Illinois’ and other states’ moves to reverse their construction bans will encourage nuclear energy development in the U.S. “If we do not build out this technology with companies that are in the United States, there’s other companies and countries such as Russia that are looking to sell that technology,” she said. “We don’t want that.”

Sheriff’s reports
Sheriff’s deputies apprehend carjacker Lake County Sheriff’s Deputies captured and arrested a man following a carjacking that occurred in Long Grove. On November 18, at approximately 11:30 a.m. a 58-year-old woman of Long Grove was pumping gas at a gas station in the 200 block of Robert Parker Coffin Road, Long Grove. As she finished pumping gas, she heard a car crash. The crash was a silver Kia, driven by a 19-year-old of the 5700 block of West Park Avenue, Cicero, crashing into a gas pump at the same gas station. After crashing, the man exited the Kia, later determined to be stolen out of Berwin. After exiting the stolen car, the offender approached the victim, as she entered the driver’s seat of her car. The offender forcefully removed the victim from her vehicle and attempted to steal the victim’s vehicle. The victim fought back and was able to get back into the driver’s seat of her car. The offender then battered her and forcefully removed her from the driver’s seat again, and stole her car. Lake County Sheriff’s Telecommunicators broadcasted an emergency regional message regarding the incident. The victim’s vehicle was located by Hawthorn Woods Police Officers in the area of Old McHenry Road and Quentin Road. Officers attempted to
