Idle restriction put on several lakes

The Department of Natural Resources announced Friday it has placed an idle speed restriction on watercraft on Oswego Lake in Kosciusko County and the Indian chain of lakes in LaGrange County and Knapp Lake in Noble County.

The Indian chain of lakes includes Dallas, Hackenberg, Messick, Westler, and Witmer lakes. An idle speed restriction is put into effect when surface water conditions are likely to enter dwelling structures as a result of a wake.
