The Alaska Department of Natural Resources reports that the Bing’s Landing boat launch on the Kenai River will be closed for maintenance from April 4th through the 22nd of this month.
The closure is necessary while Alaska State Parks Design and Construction works with a contractor to replace the existing boat ramp with new planks that will be extended further into the water. Federal Aid in Sport Fish Restoration Act and State of Alaska funds will pay for the improvements at this popular boat launch within the Kenai River Special Management Area.
Kenai/Prince William Sound Superintendent, Jack Blackwell released a statement:
“We appreciate your patience and cooperation while we work to get this popular boat launch ready for the summer season and are very appreciative of the funding support we received for this necessary improvement.”
Any questions or concerns, contact the DNR Superintendent at (907) 262 – 5581.
