WILMINGTON – The Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR) will host an open house on Wednesday, Dec. 12 to educate lake users and community members on a proposed lake management plan for Cowan Lake in Clinton County.

After considering public input gathered over the past year, ODNR is considering a lake management proposal that would allow watercraft powered by more than 10 horsepower to access the lake, provided that they only operate at idle speed.

The open house will include a brief presentation from ODNR staff as well as provide lake users and area residents with an opportunity to submit written comments, ask questions and discuss lake issues with ODNR representatives.

Public comments and recommendations, along with public safety, recreational opportunities, regional economics and environmental factors, are some of the key components considered during the development of a lake management plan.

The Cowan Lake Management Open House is scheduled to be held from 7-8:30 p.m. on Wednesday, Dec. 12 at the Moyer Community Room, located at 69 N. South St., Wilmington.
