the flow of the Chicago River was originally reversed some time back in the 1800’s, to flow downstream instead of into Lake Michigan, carrying away sewage. It is no longer used for that. Well, then back to my original point...where does the Chicago sewage plant effluent go?

That’s alittle too technical for me. The Metropolitan Sanitary District handles it. There are sewage treatment plants downstream that take care of it. The drinking water from Lake Michigan tastes fine and is supposedly better than bottled water according to test results I’ve seen. I know whenever I travel anywhere and I taste the water, it always tastes weird.
