Sabula Lakes Open House

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Rock Island District, is hosting an open house May 20 to provide an update on the ecosystem restoration project planned for the Sabula Lakes area of the Mississippi River. The event will take place from 5:30-7:30 p.m. at the Izaak Walton League located at 60190 US-52 in Sabula, Iowa.

The Sabula Lakes, nestled in Pool 13 of the Mississippi River, have seen significant habitat degradation over time, resulting in diminished aquatic diversity and shallow depths. The project, which is part of the Navigation and Ecosystem Sustainability Program, aims to revitalize these lakes, enhancing water quality and fostering more diverse habitats that are critical to river-dependent species.

During the open house, a team of subject matter experts will provide an overview of potential project features. After the presentation, representatives will be on hand to answer questions and gather feedback from the community.
