Abnormal River Condition Issued for lake Freeman

As SFLECC continues to fight for “Run of River” standards for Lake Freeman, the United State Department of Conservation has issued its mandate to maintain 500 CFS discharge from the Oakdale Dam. This is some bizarre attempt to save endangered mussels down river from the Oakdale on the Tippecanoe River. To be clear, we are all in favor of conservation and protecting our lakes. The mandate was issued in 2014 to keep a subjective minimum flow of water to the lower Tippy. A legal fight has been underway ever since. These mussels have thrived for millions of years, it is testimony to the incredible water conditions of the Twin Lakes and Tippycanoe River. Lake Freeman should not be the watering can for the lower Tippy. Low lake levels on Lake Freeman present dangerous safety hazards. So please keep to the main channel, be extra careful when enjoying waterspouts and watch out for submerged objects. Lets pray for more rain.
