(Statehouse) – State Sen. Jean Leising (R-Oldenburg) co-chaired the first Drainage Task Force meeting of 2023 at the Statehouse on Thursday, September 14 (pictured).
Created by Senate Enrolled Act 85, which Leising authored during the 2022 legislative session, the task force heard from several agencies, organizations, and constituents to review state drainage laws, make determinations and recommendations concerning drainage and regulatory matters, and determine whether the balance between state and local authority over agricultural land drainage favors state authority more in Indiana than in neighboring states.
