Well, it's done. Sort of. I don't know who to blame, the government agency in charge of the program, or whoever wrote this story, but here is the first paragraph of the CBS 2 Chicago article about the "completion" of Deep Tunnel:
It required 30 years of work and $9 million, but at long last, the Deep Tunnel is done.
And the last...
The final phase of the Deep Tunnel project is a series of reservoirs holding 10 billion gallons of storm runoff. That will take the next 30 years.
Due to the continued misbehavior of just one commenter, I'm forced to move the comments over to Marathon Pundit, where I can police things better.
