The Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries is advising WMA users of parking requirements for accessing Dewey W. Wills Wildlife Management Area from the Diversion Canal Road.
 
Until further notice, all vehicles must be parked along the Diversion Canal Road with wheels on the roadway and not in the grass along the shoulder of the road. This requirement has been implemented to minimize damage to the levee system.
 
Those utilizing the boat launch at the new Muddy Bayou waterfowl impoundment must return their vehicle to the Diversion Canal Road after launching.  WMA users not in compliance with this temporary parking requirement are subject to a citation from the Tensas Basin Levee District Police Department. 
 
Dewey W. Wills WMA is located in the southern portion of LaSalle and Catahoula parishes in central Louisiana approximately 20 miles northeast of Alexandria. For more information on the WMA, go to: http://www.wlf.louisiana.gov/wma/2753 .
