Most recently was the loss of 15 tons of fish estimated to total 20,000 to 30,000 in number at the Kearney water retention structure near the south edge of Kearney. That kill happened due to the shallow water being iced over for an extended period of time, which depleted oxygen in the water.

No, the kill happened because the land owner was allowed to "dam" the inflow to the popular fishing pond, which made the silted pond susceptible to low oxygen levels, and subsequent winter kill.
I ass-u-me they had authorization to isolate the pond.
