Hudson Lake Public Access and Boating Temporarily Affected by Dredging Project

Public access to Hudson Lake may be disrupted beginning early July through the fall due to a dredging project aimed at improving boating access.

The project, funded by the Indiana Department of Natural Resources (DNR) Lake and River Enhancement (LARE) program and Hudson Lake Conservation Association, will hydraulically pump sediment from the access channel and a navigation channel between the lake’s east and west basins to an upland area on the northwest end of the lake. This may result in temporary blockage or restrictions near these sites due to dredging equipment or piping on the lake.

The DNR advises lake users to plan accordingly and boat responsibly near any obstacles until the completion of the project.
