Consideration of the Petition for use of Otter Tail County Drainage System No. 25 as an Outlet

A petition for the use of Otter Tail County Drainage System No. 25 as an outlet for Little McDonald, Kerbs and Paul Lakes has been filed with the Otter Tail County Drainage Authority.  Little McDonald, Kerbs and Paul Lakes are landlocked lakes and do not have surface outlets within the recorded range of lake levels.  Rusch Lake may also outlet water into the proposed outlet.  The Board of Little McDonald, Kerbs, and Paul Lake Improvement District secured the services of Houston Engineering to determine and design an outlet route that was feasible within the capacity of Otter Tail County Ditch No. 25. 

The petition and the engineer’s report will be available for review ten days prior to the scheduled hearing date at the Otter Tail County Auditor’s office during regular office hours Monday through Friday and on Otter Tail County’s Web Site.   Download this Notice
