(LaPorte, IN) - The state is investigating a drainage project in La Porte.

There have been allegations of wells being drilled illegally and not capped as

required along Boyd Boulevard.

Brad Adamsky is the attorney for the La Porte County Drainage board.

Adamsky told the board this week he’s been in contact with the Indiana Department

of Natural Resources.  He said DNR is looking into the situation. 

Three have also been allegations the project has aggravated flooded on the Louie Spear farm.

A drainage basin is going in there to improve drainage capacity primarily for the industry on the city’s east side.
