BLM ANNOUNCES SEASONAL ROAD CLOSURES
The Bureau of Land Management's Alturas Field Office has announced seasonal road closures in Lassen and Modoc counties. The closures begin March 12, and are designed to protect muddy areas from motor vehicle damage. Closures will be lifted when the areas dry later in the spring.
In Modoc County, the Delta Lake Road will be closed to vehicles at the north end of the Bayley Reservoir Dam. Vehicle access to Nelson Corral Reservoir in Lassen County will be limited to existing roads.
"These annual restrictions were initiated in 2000 following extensive public discussion," said Tim Burke, manager of the BLM Alturas Field Office. "The travel restrictions protect public lands from damage while still allowing reasonable springtime access to these popular fishing reservoirs."
Current road information is available by calling the Alturas Field Office at (530) 233-4666 or from the website, www.ca.blm.gov/alturas.
