DeKalb County Drainage Board Duties

The DeKalb County Drainage Board manages the construction and reconstruction of all county-regulated drains or proposed county-regulated drains in the county as required by Indiana State Law. The Drainage Board and the County Surveyor have jurisdiction over all county-regulated drains. County-regulated drains are drains that have been established by either the Commissioners' Court or County Circuit Court prior to 1965 or the Drainage Board since 1966. County-regulated drains are open ditches, tile drains, or a combination of both.
