Fox River Navigation System Authority
View Exhibit mapFrom the website of the Authority:
The Fox River Navigational System Authority was created to oversee the management of the Fox Locks following the transfer of the system from the Corps of Engineers to the State of Wisconsin in 2004. As specified in Chapter 237, Wisconsin Statutes, the Authority's primary mission is to repair, rehabilitate, operate and maintain the locks system. (Download Chapter 237) To meet this responsibility the Authority has developed a plan to manage monies received through local fund-raising, and from the federal and state government’s match funds, to ensure that sufficient funds are available for long term maintenance of the system.
See the official Fox River Navigational System Authority for more about the Fox River system of locks.
