Watershed Restoration Program Restore Priority Meadows, Wetlands, and Lake Tahoe Tributaries
This Project proposes to remove two standpipe/metal culvert crossings installed in the late 90s at Incline Way and upstream near an existing multi-use path and replace them with structures that allow for the passage of native salmonids. The project has the potential to team up with desired pedestrian and cyclist improvements on Incline Way in Incline Village.
