Final Methods
Utah DFCM was in charge of construction for the project. The state bid purchasing process was use to hire a construction company for construction. Perco Rock was the successful low bidder and did the work. They used a lot of different pieces of heavy equipment and trucks to haul materials and complete marina renovation work as planned. Additional work was added to the construction contract, which was to build a wetland mitigation site, extend one dike further out into the lake and install boat dock anchors. One dike was in too deep of water and dike material kept sloughing off into deep water. A section of the dike had to be moved about 20' into shallower water to make it stable. Once the new permanent outside dikes were completed, a temporary dike was placed across the marina entrance to isolate the inside of the marina. Water was pumped out and the marina was dredged to the proper depth.

Project Narrative
In fall 2019, the first phase of the Bowery Haven Marina renovation project was completed that included expanding the parking lot by two times, rebuilding a collapsing marina wall and installing a new double pit toilet. The current completed project was phase 2 and it was completed in December of 2021. The project continued the renovation, expansion, and improvement of the Bowery Haven Marina. The most significant part of the phase 2 project was constructing two new outside dikes and removing old inside dikes that expanded the marina by more than twice the original size. Other construction work completed was a new double-wide boat launching ramp, expanded parking lot and boat launching prep area, a new concrete retaining wall along the marina edge, dredging to deepen the marina, and installing concrete blocks for anchoring boat docks. Construction work completed also included creating a new wetland mitigation area, hauling rock riprap and rehabbing the rock pit area, and partial rehab of the gravel pit area at Pelican Point. Marina owners are purchasing some new boat docking slips. The project greatly benefits public boaters and anglers because larger boats can now launch and be retrieved without risk of damage and colliding into parked boats, more boaters can utilize the expanded marina, access to boat slips and the dikes is safer and easier, there is much more room for parking at the marina, and an overall more pleasing recreation experience. Boat launching ramp, parking, restrooms, and marina access remains open for all public use. Boating facilities at all three marinas at Fish Lake have been greatly enhanced and expanded over the last three years. The total cost of phase 2 of the Bowery Haven Marina renovation was about $1,602,500.00. Perco Rock construction company was great to work with and they completed all work excellently.

Future Management
Bowery Haven Marina owners have signed a Cooperative Agreement that they will do all maintenance and upkeep of the marina and of a new fish cleaning station installed. The marina and boat launching ramp will always be open for public use. The marina will continue to add boat slips and improvements in the coming years. The DWR is planning to purchase and install and public courtesy boat dock in summer 2022.
