Snow Creek Wetlands Restoration

Placer County purchased the former TNT concrete batch plant property in Tahoe Vista in 2008 which is a source of pollution to the Snow Creek wetlands. Storm water runoff flows through the property and discharges into the wetlands untreated. The project will remove soil and fill material, construct engineered wetlands to treat storm water prior to discharging into the Snow Creek tributary, and restore functioning wetlands. Other components include sidewalks and a shared-use path connection from the Tahoe Vista Recreation Beach to the North Tahoe Regional Park.
