Texas Rapids closed for maintenance, Aug. 5-11

STARBUCK—The Texas Rapids recreational area, located four miles from Little Goose Dam on the lower Snake River near Starbuck, will be closed Aug. 5-11 while Natural Resource Management maintenance staff sweeps and seal coats the parking lot and access road.

“This work is meant to keep this resource area operational since budgetary constraints prevent complete repaving. This work will be followed by line striping to improve safety and efficiency of this highly visited site,” Maintenance Supervisor Mark Poirier stated.
