Update for February 6, 2009
For the week of February 9th through February 13th the Contractor plans on starting up operations (drilling, blasting, preparation for wall construction) in one or two areas and the roadway will again be under the winter opening/closure schedule for this week.
No night work scheduled for this week.
NOTE: The “Women with Bait” Tournament continues this week, so be aware of the minor time changes to the opening / closure road schedule.
For those of you planning on visiting the area to camp, hunt, fish, and/or just to enjoy the area, the Salmon River Road may have changed since your last visit, so please be cautious and patient when traveling through the construction area and abide by the signs placed for your safety, and everyone else’s safety also.
