Mile (miles)
The amount of city, county, state and federal roads that are retrofitted or obliterated to reduce stormwater pollution through capital improvements. This PM is reported in three categories of treatment priority based on water quality risk. Treating high-priority roads reduces stormwater pollution and cost-effectively improves the clarity of Lake Tahoe.

IMPORTANT: Operations and maintenance activities are captured by other PMs and should not be reported under this PM.
This Indicator is reported in the following LT Info areas:

Data displayed currently includes improvements accomplished by TMDL Urban Implementing Partners. TMDL Management Agencies are working on update to display only accomplishments completed on non-urban roads.

The amount of forestland roads that are retrofitted or obliterated to reduce stormwater pollution through capital improvements. This PM is reported in three categories of treatment priority based on water quality risk. Treating high-priority roads reduces stormwater pollution and cost-effectively improves the clarity of Lake Tahoe.

Note: The TMDL Program tracks and reports implementation progress for the Urban Uplands Source Category through a quantitative pollutant load reduction approach. Given the relative magnitude of the pollutant load contribution as well as the additional cost and complexity associated with this approach, Non-Urban Source Category implementation progress is  tracked and reported using an activity-based approach. More information on TMDL tracking and reporting is available on the Lake Clarity Tracker.
