Updates
- Eagle Lake is still working to reach the permit target and the last few rain events are hampering the draw down. Prior to the last rain event Eagle Lake had just less than 1” to reach the permit target.
- The Honorable Judge Lipsey preceded over the hearing for the Lake Level Petition for both Eagle and Crooked Lakes on May 28, 2021. After reviewing the study and the submitted correspondence and listening to testimony, Judge Lipsey set the Normal Lake Level for Eagle Lake to 899.26 and for Crooked Lake to 895.12, which were the recommended levels. The Drain Office is now moving forward with the long term project. Prein and Newhof is working to design the project and on obtaining the remaining easements.
