Sen Robert Cowles announces he won't seek re-election in the newly redrawn 2nd District
The water levels will be going up on Shawano Lake.
Republican Sen. Rob Cowles of Allouez says a federal agency is issuing a temporary order. He wishes they would’ve received the order sooner, but they’re happy to at least have it now.
Cowles says the higher levels are crucial for tourism in the area.
Cowles says even though it’s a five-inch increase, it’s a big deal because the lake is shallow to begin with. He says boats can be damaged when the levels are lower.
