Environmental problems are growing at Lake Delhi, where a flood-related
dam failure drained the lake in July. DNR Director Richard
Leopold says the Maquoketa River is washing away 80 years of silt on
the bottom of the lake. Leopold told the Des Moines Register on
Monday that a stop-gap solution would be to spread a cover crop, such
as oats, on the lake bed to help stabalize the sediment. Leopold
also says there are divisions within the agency over whether the lake
should be restored.
