The Peace and Moberly rivers will be permanently closed starting June 15, 2020.
The closures will come ahead of river diversion at Site C in September, when BC Hydro will begin building the earthfill dam across the main Peace River channel.
BC Hydro says it will be placing debris booms across the river and undertaking other in-river construction works at the dam site. Restricted areas will be marked with signage and beacons.
A portage program will be available to move non-motorized boats up to up to 20' by road between the Halfway River boat launch and the Peace Island Park boat launch.
The program will run from June 15 to September 15, and portages will need to be prebooked.
