The Department of Natural Resources (DNR) announced  that on Monday, Aug. 5, the Van Riper State Park boating access site in Marquette County will begin a temporary closure for installation of a new concrete boat ramp.

Work will be completed by a DNR construction crew. The boat launch is expected to be open by Aug. 9.

This project is funded through the Michigan State Waterways Fund, a restricted fund derived from boat registration fees and the Michigan marine fuel tax, which is used for the construction, operation and maintenance of recreational boating facilities, harbors and inland waterways.
