...In the 13 years Haugom has led the emergency management office in Jefferson County, she said a slow, and no-wake order has never been issued for Lake Koshkonong.

...The Koshkonong Lake District's Web site, rkld.org, has been placing a half-dozen postings a day telling residents along the lake to remove anything the high water could capture and put in the stream and carry out, said Brian Christianson, chairman of the district.

"We've been removing debris from the Indianford trash racks daily the last two weeks," he said.

"It's really the individual's responsibility," Christianson added, "to protect piers, their boats, picnic tables, storage boxes or anything high water could capture."
