Ben Kulat and Elena Watts travel down to Harlan reservoir to learn about a 6-million-dollar initiative to save the Republican River. Journey with us as we learn about the battle between conservationist Merle Illian and his crew of dedicated combatants with the ferocious invasive weed phragmites, whose growth threatened to choke the life out Nebraska's southmost waterway.
