HomeMy WebLinkAboutPSK-yakima river_2024.10.29 (2) Comments for the Yakima River Canyon Attn: Diane Priebe blm or wn mail@blm.gov dpiebe@blm.gov The BLM has done a fantastic job developing recreation in the Yakima River Canyon. The continuous improvement and cleanliness of the recreation sites is outstanding and consistent. Thank you. Uniform BLM management from Stone Road to the Rosa recreation area along the Yakima River Canyon is a worthwhile goal. Preventing the public from loving the river to death will preserve public access to OUR RIVER for future generations. Recommend WDFW left bank land holdings be swapped with BLM right bank Land holdings. Reduce site management costs and present an uniform branding/fee system in the Yakima River Canyon. WDOT no parking zone 1,000 feet of site entrances to improve public traffic safety. WSDOT corridor sketch summary 3/29/2018 "What needs to change?There are a number of issues with the pull-off areas including their location, entry and exit points, and size within the Yakima River Canyon" Peak time vehicle shoulder parking is a concern to public safety. . BLM to manage "WDOT" access points. Solicit Kittitas County Commissioners to support yearly capital funding for BLM capital improvements in the Yakima River Canyon Raise fees: parking$10 daily, Camping$20 . Friends of the Yakima River Canyon:$30 yearly. Present BLM many other pass options. Free to veterans Go cashless at all sites with ROK pay stations.
