IDEM Public Meeting in LaGrange
A 3,360 dairy operation with a permit currently pending before IDEM has been set for a public discussion in LaGrange County:
The Indiana Department of Environmental Management will host a public meeting from 6 to 8 p.m. at the LaGrange Community Building on the LaGrange County 4-H Fairgrounds, 1030 East County Road 75 North in LaGrange, to present information about their regulatory role and answer questions from participants.

The Wall Lake Association and Bob Hedges gets some print in the article over their concerns:
Hedges said he isn’t aware of any Wall Lake residents vowing to sell their lakefront homes if the dairy goes in, but several residents – including his brother and sister-in-law – have stalled improvement projects until after IDEM’s decision.
“They haven’t done that, but that’s not to say that they won’t,” he said of potential sales. “When you get something like this that moves in close … you have to re-evaluate how you invest in your property.”
