      Just thought I would share this email that came though this morning .. because I am pretty sure geocachers out and about this weekend might see it. green & gold is being requested to update the city website when he is in the office after school today.

      “Please place the following information on the City Web Site as soon as possible.

      The City of Milwaukee’s Environmental Section has started a dye-testing project at various locations in the City of Milwaukee. Nontoxic Florescent Green dye will be applied into the city of Milwaukee storm sewers which flow into City of Greenfield storm sewers at 94th Street and West Howard Avenue. The Florescent Green dye may be visible at the outfall of the City of Greenfield storm sewer which is located at the north branch of the Root River. The dye is not harmful to fish. Milwaukee anticipates completion of the dye-testing project by November 30, 2008.

      Thank You
