Implementation of the EIP is guided by the the best available science. Applied research and monitoring programs provide information to managers to steer environmental improvement projects and measure their success. A fully integrated science program that can help drive management decisions is essential to support of the goals of the EIP. The Science Program is comprised of two elements: applied research and monitoring.
In 2015, the Tahoe Science Advisory Council (TSAC) was formed by a Memorandum of Understanding between the states of California and Nevada to work hand in hand with land managers to drive new research and adaptive management.
