The project, located in the Country Club Heights subdivision, is roughly bounded by Highway 50, the Upper Truckee River, and Crystal Air Drive. The main goal of this project is to reduce very fine/fine sediment from the County right-of-way from reaching the Upper Truckee River near Elks Club Drive to help achieve TMDL goals. Phases 1 & 2 focused on water quality (WQ) / Stream Environment Zone (SEZ) improvements throughout the subdivision. Phase 3 is focused on WQ / SEZ/ and User Access improvements surrounding the old “Elks Lodge” property between Elks Club Drive, Highway 50, and the Upper Truckee River.

Eyes on the Lake is a citizen science program to help prevent the spread of aquatic invasive species in Tahoe’s waters. League staff train community members how to identify and report on aquatic plants found while out enjoying the Lake. This information is used for early detection of new infestations followed by a rapid response to get treatment on the ground and stop these invaders in their tracks. Eyes on the Lake volunteers literally protect while they play at Lake Tahoe.

The Brautovich Park SEZ Restoration and Park Rehabilitation is a joint effort between Douglas County and the Nevada Tahoe Conservation District (NTCD). The Project restored over a half acre of a Douglas County-owned parcel (APN 1319-18-401-003) to historic stream environment zone (SEZ), relocated the existing baseball field and playground to less sensitive lands within the parcel, and upgraded the parking and water quality features to help achieve the Lake Tahoe TMDL. The reconfiguration of the site incorporated improved stormwater treatment and erosion control to bring the parcel into BMP compliance.

This project is a continuation of multiple phases of the California Tahoe Conservancy's Greenway Multi-Use Trail Project. This segment (1C) will provide for a multi use paved trail from the limits of Herbert Avenue to the limits of Ski Run Boulevard and Pioneer Trail.

This CTC Project has been handed off to the City of South Lake Tahoe for study, planning & design, and implementation
