The Dunlap Lake spillway project has been a result of many years of collaboration with IDNR to bring the dam up to modern standards. It triples overflow capacity, so the lake will rise less during rain events and will return to normal levels much faster after rain events.
Minimizing the impact on the boating season has been of the highest priority. Work started as soon approval was given, but permitting can be a lengthy process. Thank you for funding the project and for your patience through the long winter.
Rain is predicted and Mother Nature should have the lake ready for boats soon.
