Did any one see this? I didn't until now. It says the 15th was the deadline, but maybe some interest even now would help. I am always pro restrooms!
Any one fish this area much?

New Public Boat Access and Recreation Site at Red Road Bridge
IDAHO FALLS – Due to increased use and the difficulty in accessing the river, a new public access and boat ramp on the Henry’s Fork of the Snake River, called Red Road Bridge Boat Access and Recreation Site, has been installed. The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is now asking for public comments regarding the installation of a new restroom facility at the site. The BLM will apply for an Idaho Department of Parks and Recreation Waterways Grant to install this new restroom facility at Red Road Bridge and would like comments and/or letters of support for the project.
In 2008, the BLM, Idaho Department of Fish and Game (IDFG), Fremont County Road and Bridge and the Henry’s Fork Foundation partnered to provide the public with a river access site on BLM lands at Red Road Bridge in Fremont County. Public access sites along the Henry’s Fork in the Red Road area were limited and those other than the newly created access do not have a boat ramp and due to topography can be difficult to use. The closest public river access to Red Road Bridge that has a developed ramp is 9.5 miles downriver from Red Road Bridge.
Please email Shannon Bassista at shannon_bassista@blm.gov or call her at (208)524-7552 if you have any questions or would like to submit comments regarding the project. Deadline for letters of support are January 15, 2010.
