UPPCO to close Boney Falls boat launch next week

ESCANABA, MI— The boat launch on the Boney Falls reservoir will be closed to the public on Monday.

Upper Peninsula Power Company says the closure is required for de-mobilization of equipment used for maintenance and improvements over the summer. Crews will be disassembling a construction barge and unloading materials.

The campground near dam #4 will remain open, but access will be delayed at times. UPPCO officials say the boat launch near dam #3 on the Escanaba River should be used as an alternative.
