Dewart Lake (99D) sits in Syracuse, Indiana. Field elevation is 865 ft MSL. No runways are listed in the facts, so this is a seaplane field rather than a conventional paved-strip stop. No tower is published. CTAF is 122.9.

No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published, so verify the current traffic pattern and arrival plan before you go. The published remarks matter here. Seaplane operations are prohibited between sunset and sunrise. Do not block boat ramps. Docking areas are limited. Heavy boat traffic is expected between Memorial Day and Labor Day. For clearance delivery, contact Chicago ARTCC at 630-906-8921. The manager is listed as the boating law administrator.

There are no on-field FBOs listed. Plan to arrive with current field and waterway information in hand. This is the kind of place where local traffic on the lake matters as much as the airport entry itself. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement for any updates before flying in, especially if you are planning a first visit or a late-day arrival.
