Confluentus Corner FAS Draft Environmental Assessment

Fish Wildlife & Parks (FWP) is proposing the construction of a 5-6 vehicle gravel parking lot, on the southwestern corner of newly acquired property on the Thompson River. The proposed project location was acquired by FWP in 2020. The location of the proposed parking area would be inside the footprint of the former Thompson River Road, adjacent to the current road on the east side. This area was previously disturbed when the Thompson River Road was constructed and is relatively level. The proposed gravel parking lot would create a safer location for users to park their vehicles while accessing the river. The proposed construction would be completed by October of 2024. The area would be inspected and maintained by FWP staff like other Fishing Access Sites (FAS).
