Whatcom ADA Dock Replacement

Status
Funded in 2009
WWRP Applicant: Dept of Fish & Wildlife WWRP Category: State Lands Development WWRP Grant: $324,600 Project Type: Development County: Whatcom  Legislative District: 42nd 

The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife will use this grant to replace the dock on Lake Terrell, a popular warm water fishing spot that sees 25,000 user-days annually. An improved fishing pier would reduce conflicts between anglers and boaters using the boat dock, and provide a fishing facility accessible to people with disabilities. Work will include removing a small restroom and a 36-year-old float and installing a new parking area, toilet, and fishing pier. The new parking lot will reduce congestion at the boat launch and be adjacent to the new pier. The new pier will nearly double the available fishing area. The local bass club has volunteered to assist in removal of the old float.(08-1485)
