Crews in Vernon County are beginning emergency repairs on another dam.

Friday, workers are at the Runge Hollow Dam.

A DNR dam safety and floodplain engineer says the repairs are temporary, until a permanent plan is in place.

Gordon Stinson says workers will install a wall to help keep water from seeping under the dam.

He says next week, crews will start fixing the Hidden Valley Dam. He also says several other dams need minor repairs.
