North Central Region
August 20, 2008
Contact: Karen Parker, 386-758-0525
Five state forests, which are also Florida Fish
and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) wildlife management
areas in Clay, Nassau and Duval counties, have been closed to
public access by the Division of Forestry because of Tropical
Storm Fay.
Jennings Forest (Clay), Belmore (Clay), Four
Creeks (Nassau) Ralph E. Simmons Memorial (Nassau) and Cary
(Nassau and Duval) are closed to public access because of public
safety and road issues.
According to FWC officials, Division of Forestry
personnel will evaluate conditions Friday and discuss when to
reopen the areas.
