(From The Week newspaper)Water gushed out of Geneva Lake at a rate of 2,100 gallons per second, spilling into the already swollen White River Thursday. That's 7.5 million gallons per day, said the lake's top law enforcement official.
The city of Lake Geneva and Town of Linn enacted emergency slow-no-wake rules Wednesday for its portions of the approximately 5,200-acre lake. Fontana was expected to follow suit Thursday night, after this edition's deadline, and Williams Bay was considering similar action, Hausner said.
Tom Hausner, manager of the Geneva Lake Law Enforcement Agency says "I don't know how people are going to react. I've gotten calls from people on both sides-people saying we've got to do something and other people who said they're upset." Read the complete story here.
