REDDING, Calif. — The Bureau of Land Management is seeking public comments on a proposal to restore an unused target shooting area along Clear Creek Road near Redding.
A preliminary engineering evaluation/cost analysis on the project, available for review at bit.ly/3UDiYfX, for removing hazardous material at the Lower Creek site. The nine-acre area along Clear Creek Road was used for recreational target shooting from the 1980s until 1999. Recreational target shooting was discontinued in recreational areas of the Clear Creek Greenway in 1999 for public safety reasons.

Comments can be sent by mail to: Bureau of Land Management, Redding Field Office, 6640 Lockheed Drive, Redding, CA 96002, Attention: Chad Endicott.
