A celebration at the Milwaukee River on Thursday morning.
This ribbon cutting ceremony at Lincoln Park marked the end of a four-year cleanup project.
Crews removed 171,000 cubic yards of sediment from areas that were contaminated with PCBs.
These are chemicals dumped by industrial companies.
The 43-million dollar cost for the project was shared by the EPA, the Wisconsin DNR and the Milwaukee County Park System.
