County eyes halting payments to lake district for Indianford Dam

From the Daily Jefferson County Union

JEFFERSON — The concept of Jefferson County halting its payments to the Rock-Koshkonong Lake District for maintenance and repair of the Indianford Dam is expected to be presented to the district’s legal counsel.

At its meeting Tuesday, the county’s Finance Committee discussed the ramifications of the lake district’s petition to have the state Department of Natural Resources (DNR) change its operating orders for the Indianford Dam to eliminate the winter water-level drawdown and increase the summer maximum by approximately 7.2 inches.
