The Illinois Department of Natural Resources partners with Exelon Generation’s Braidwood Station on Monday to place artificial fish habitats into Braidwood Lake.
The piping on the structures gets covered with algae within hours of being added to the lake, providing fish a lush habitat.
Since 2007, Exelon Generation has paid to put nearly 1,500 of these structures into the lake, which improves the quality of life for fish and has resulted in bigger fish in the lake.
More than 100 of the structures were dropped into Braidwood Lake on Monday.
