Hatchery Paving Project and Temporary Closures

[CGW2]

Hi Windsurfers-

Construction season is upon us, both on the roads and at the beaches.
In a joint project between U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and
Washington State Parks, The Hatchery is getting a long overdue
makeover this month. This means a couple week-days of closures, but
by July it will look shiny new.

The Hatchery will be closed for all uses on June 4th and 7th (Friday and Monday), and two more days TBA toward the end of the month.

Learn more about the project details and closure information [here]

Have a great weekend,

-Katie

Hi Windsurfers- Here's the latest on the Hatchery road maintenance:

Spring Creek National Fish Hatchery Pavement Project

Spring Creek National Fish Hatchery is continuing work on a pavement replacement project that will include new asphalt along the entrance road, hatchery parking, and housing areas. The roadway through the Spring Creek State Park windsurfing site will be resurfaced and the parking area will be leveled with gravel.

The existing pavement has been in place for more than 30 years and has deteriorated to the point that replacement is necessary.

The road paving work is scheduled to begin on Friday June 25th and will continue through Friday July 2nd and possibly into the weekend if necessary, though all reasonable efforts will be made to avoid this. Paving will begin on the East end of the road and move West. Once the paving work moves into the recreational access areas, the park will be closed to recreation.

For additional information contact Columbia Hills State Park at 509-767-1159. For technical project information contact Spring Creek National Fish Hatchery at 509-493-1730.

Nice timing. Our tax dollars hard at work!

Any updates on how this project is progressing?

The contractor today(Monday) told us that the hatch would most likely be closed Wednesday and Thursday (June 30 and Jule 1). But I would suspect Friday could be a closure also.
