Document Description
Develop a low water staging area at the Salmon Falls River Access within Folsom Lake SRA. The project will reduce congestion at this take out facility for commercial whitewater rafting trips during peak use times. The staging area will facilitate equipment loading. The work will include construction of a 22 ft. by 50 ft. concrete ramp from the edge of the existing paved parking lot to a flat area below the reservoir normal high pool. A pole gate will be installed at the top of the the concrete ramp, and the low water staging area will only be utilized when DPR staff are on site during peak use summer weekends. The flat area (140 by 145 feet) will be minimally graded and clean crushed rock will be placed on the flat to help prevent rutting by vehicles and reduce erosion. The project will also inlcude some re-striping of the existing paved parking lot. DPR will ensure all appropriate and required permits are obtained prior to initiating the project.
