MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- Governor Evers and state lawmakers have approved a river cleanup on Milwaukee's rivers.
This will allow the dredging of the rivers to remove sediment at the bottom.
The goal is to stop toxic material from flowing into Lake Michigan. A total of $260 million will be used.
Barring the announcement, there is no official timetable for this project.
