Overview

Basics

Basics
This water quality improvement project in a priority treatment area in Incline Village reduces the amount of fine sediment washing into the lake and help Washoe County meet its milestone of the Lake Tahoe TMDL and improve lake clarity. Tasks include installation of stormwater treatment BMPs, shoulder stabilization, and culvert improvements. Benefits include improved stormwater quality release to Wood Creek & Lake Tahoe, increased protection and stream function for Wood Creek riparian and SEZ and greater TRPA Stormwater Program collaboration for BMP compliance. The project (Phase 1 & 2) is expected to earn Washoe County 30-40 credits in the Lake Clarity Crediting Program.

Notes

Notes
01/06/2022 1:41 PM Domi Fellers Washoe County completed Phase 1 construction Nov 2021. The project improved stormwater conveyance along Southwood & Mays Blvd, which will reduce erosion. Additionally, the project installed a new culvert on Wood Creek at Southwood Blvd. The new culverts no longer impede flow, and although not technically designed to improve fish passage, the lack of barriers may allow some fish to navigate the steep and fast moving water to move upstream.
