Overview

Basics

Basics
Retrofit and/or reconfigure roads with water quality protection BMPs. Environmental analysis (NEPA), design and implementation of water quality retrofit improvements at the resort involved development of a site-specific Proposed Action for activities at the Kehlet House and other areas of the resort adjacent to the waters of Lake Tahoe.

Notes

Notes
01/15/2016 2:32 PM Genevieve Villemaire Interdisciplinary analysis provided NEPA documentation under a Categorical Exclusion. A detailed topographic and site survey was conducted to serve as the basis for detailed design. A design was developed for management of storm water run-off on site that also met other project needs. Grading to meet accessibility requirements and to infiltrate storm water provided important water quality protection and respected the site’s historic character. Fine sediment is no longer produced as a result of the previous poorly defined parking and vehicle circulation on native surfaces surrounded on three sides by Lake Tahoe.

Implementation of water quality protection measures within the resort campground also occurred. The completion of a campground tent loop road and campsite spurs provided a managed surface for vehicles and campers which reduced site erosion and directed storm water run-off to areas for infiltration.
