Agencies Clash Over Port Dredging Rights in Indiana
In Indianapolis two state agencies faced off over dredging and fill rights at Indiana's planned Lake Michigan seaport. The Indiana Port Commission contested a $300 per acre price demanded by the State Conservation Commission, insisting on a $100 rate for nearly 300 acres, a gap of about $60,000. The dispute arose amid talks on offshore dredging to 27 feet depth for ocean‑going vessels and shore fill, with Bethlehem Steel tied to a separate land deal and a Northwest University campus extension under scrutiny.
