DNR tightens rules to keep Ocheyedan River from drying
In northwest Iowa the Osceola County Rural Water System faces new permit limits as river flow falls. When stream flow dips below half a cubic foot per second, the wells must idle. The change targets repeat dry-ups near May City and builds on prior restrictions tied to quarry pumping. The county will avoid quarry pumping in July through September and must document river conditions and pumping rates during low flow.
