All but the most eastern lane of the launch ramp will close
CAMAS — Effective Wednesday (April 29), and until further notice, in compliance with the stay-at-home order issued by Washington Gov. Jay Inslee, Port of Camas-Washougal’s launch ramp will be closing all but the most eastern lane of the launch ramp. All other lanes will be closed. The purpose is to effectively implement social distancing on the Port’s docks and ramp.
“It is our intent to continue to allow recreational launch ramp activity as long as it complies with social distancing requirements recommended by federal, state and local health officials to prevent the spread of COVID-19,’’ said David Ripp, chief executive officer of the Port of Camas-Washougal. “Our first priority is to ensure protection of the public, employees, business operators and users during this unprecedented public emergency.’’
Ripp invited those with questions or concerns to contact him directly at david@portcw.com or via phone at (360) 835-2196.
“We recognize this is a disappointment for many of our launch ramp customers and boaters and apologize for any inconvenience,’’ Ripp said. “We will continue to keep you updated as conditions change.’’
