Re-contouring Work in Estuary: September 11 - October 31

11/9/2023

There will be minor modifications done to the former "Spit" for several weeks between September 11 and October 31. This continuation of Phase 2 work includes scrapping down some high points and re-sculpturing a portion of the new end of the berm to help connect existing channels to the estuary. The work will involve heavy machinery and the transportation of rock and soil. The very southern end of the training berm will be closed to the public during this time however there will be public access to the parking area at the Chelem Trail.

If you have any questions please don't hesitate to contact us.
