Temporary Closures at Chippewa Lake Access Site during June

Contact:  Eric Fransen 989-386-4067
Agency: Natural Resources
 

June 7, 2005

Michigan Department of Natural Resources officials today announced the Chippewa Lake boating access site will be renovated this month, and visitors will encounter limited parking and occasional temporary closures during construction. The project will expand parking from 20 spaces to 40, upgrade vault toilet facilities and relocate the entrance road to enhance safety.

Chippewa Lake is a 791-acre water body, located about 12 miles northeast of Big Rapids in Mecosta County. The lake is known for its bass, walleye and a variety of panfish.

Through June 24, anglers and boaters are urged to contact the Clare field office prior to venturing out to use this location. Contact Eric Fransen at (989) 386-4067 for current construction activity and site closure information.

The DNR Parks and Recreation Division’s construction crew based in Grayling will complete the project with assistance of personnel from the Clare field office.

The DNR is committed to the conservation, protection, management, use and enjoyment of the state's natural resources
for current and future generations.
