The North Shore Lane dredging project is officially underway, marking an important step forward in the rehabilitation of Lake Onalaska.

According to Lake Onalaska Rehabilitation Coalition, this project is about more than improving boat access. It will help reopen a historic channel, improve navigation, create critical fish habitat, capture sediment before it spreads farther into the lake, and continue the legacy of local stewardship that began with earlier dredging efforts in the Brice Prairie area.
