Newspaper Page Text2A | WEDNESDAY, MAY 8, 2019 | COTTAGE GROVE SENTINEL On The Record Cottage Grove Reservoir opening to be delayed The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers will delay the opening of Cottage Grove Reservoir day-use parks by about a week as workers continue to clear storm de- bris. The Corps plans to open the day-use parks at Cottage Grove for week- end-only use starting May 18. However, those sites will be closed during week days as maintenance crews continue clean-up efforts. In past years, Corps-man- aged day-use parks gener- ally open the second week- end in May, but during a late-February snow storm, hundreds of trees were damaged within the parks at Cottage Grove Reservoir and Dorena Reservoir. As each park is complete- ly cleaned up, the weekday restrictions will be lifted for that park. Fifteen camp sites at Schwarz Campground, lo- cated at Dorena Reservoir, will remain closed until June 30 to continue debris clean-up efforts. Corps maintenance crews have been working diligently since February to clear the debris hazards in the parks and camp- grounds to lessen impacts for upcoming camping res- ervations. Once the campgrounds are open, the teams will shift their full attention to the day-use parks. For more information, contact the Willamette Valley park ranger office at 541-942-5631.
