Rock Koshkonong Lake District Buoy Update

Due to the increased rainfall and wind, many buoys within the District, particularly the channel markers, are out of position. This situation poses a navigational hazard uses are advised to exercise extra caution. Additionally, there is an increased presence of floating debris and tree limbs that could further endanger water activities.

The Lake District is actively monitoring the situation and will take corrective action with the District’s contracted vendor, The Harbor of Newville, to reposition the buoys once water levels return to normal. Until then, please remain cautious while on the water.
