Subject: LAKE CLOSURE - April 15-19
From: Grande Maumelle Sailing Club



IMPORTANT INFORMATION FROM CENTRAL ARKANSAS WATER:

 

As part of the ongoing efforts to eradicate hydrilla from Lake Maumelle, CAW plans to undergo a week-long treatment in the reservoir which will result in a full closure of the lake during that time to ensure that operations go as smoothly and efficiently as possible.

 

As with nearly all of their work in the watersheds and at the lakes, this project is highly dependent on the cooperation of the weather and storms or windy conditions would shift these plans. As of today, the plan is to close the launch ramps and boat slips at the Sleepy Hollow Access, WestRock Landing Marina, and the Grande Maumelle Sailing Club beginning at Midnight (12am) on April 15th and the lake will remain closed to ALL boat traffic through Friday, April 19th at 6pm, or unless otherwise posted.  

 

The lake will remain open to bank fishing and other recreational parks and trails around the lake will remain open. Anyone doing business at the marina or sailing club will need to gain access from WestRock Landing Marina prior to entry. Recreation at Lake Winona will be unaffected during this closure.

 

There will likely be subsequent closures through mid-Summer. CAW's hope is to remain efficient and potentially reduce the number of days in this and the subsequent closures, so please help make this application go as smoothly as possible by remaining off the lake during these times.

 

If there are any changes to this schedule, CAW will send out notice here and updates will be posted to the CAW Facebook page.
