Overview

Basics

Basics
The Tahoe Water for Fire Suppression partnership consists of 17 water service agencies within the Tahoe Basin. This partnership works together to promote fire protection. This project is a basin-wide programmatic approach to protecting water infrastructure by providing fuels reduction activities at each of the partner agencies water delivery infrastructure sites. Upon completion of the Vegetation Management Plan, fuels reduction implementation can begin at the recommended water service agency sites throughout the Basin.

Location Information Location Notes
The programmatic approach to fuels reduction at each partner water agency results in a basin-wide implementation of fuels reduction activities. As each agency completes the fuels reduction for their service district, an EIP project with that specific information, including exact locations, will be entered into the EIP Tracker.

Notes
01/25/2024 12:31 PM Beth Vollmer 2023 Update:
Implementation of the fuels reduction work is dependent upon the completion of the Fuels Treatment at Critical Infrastructure Sites project (Vegetation Management Plan) 02.01.01.0127 - Fuels Treatment at Critical Infrastructure Sites. Once that project is complete, fuels reduction work on identified land will begin and continue through summer 2025.
01/17/2023 9:21 AM Yesenia Pacheco The next phase of this project is to complete a Vegetation Management Plan (VMP) for the priority infrastructure treatment sites identified in the 2021 FVA on the California side. A Registered Professional Forester will be contracted to develop a VMP that will include treatment plans for each high-priority site. STPUD, TCPUD, NTPUD, and Lukins Brothers Water Company will use the VMP for fuel reduction/defensible space planning and implementation.
