Watershed Restoration Program
Restore Priority Meadows, Wetlands, and Lake Tahoe Tributaries
The proposed project relocates 2200 LF of gravity sewer main from the current location within a SEZ to a paved area and compacted road shoulder. The relocation reduces risk of sewer discharge directly to Lake Tahoe by moving manholes currently located on the shore of Lake Tahoe (within a yellow cress protection area) and within tributaries away from these sensitive areas. Facilitates Taylor-Tallac Restoration by USFS.
Targeted Performance Measures
Acres of SEZ Restored or Enhanced
