Why the Changes are Necessary: Lane County Parks has leased Baker Bay Park from the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) since 1976. The current wastewater system, designed by the USACE, has been evaluated as being in Poor to Fair condition. As a result, Lane County Parks has securedfunding from the American Rescue Plan Act to address deficiencies in the system. Civil West Engineering Services has been awarded a contract to assess and design a long-term wastewater solution. Due to recurring pipe failures during the assessment process, the pressurized pipeline has been temporarily shut down, leading to the indefinite closure of flush restroom and shower facilities. The park will remain open during the summer season with portable restroom facilities. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation during this necessary maintenance period. Once the technical assessment is finalized in early 2024, Civil West will begin the design and engineering work toward a long-term solution. Furthermore, we are actively working with the USACE to secure a new lease as the current one expires on February 28, 2024.
