Overview

Basics

Basics
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.

Notes

Notes
01/17/2025 11:52 AM Jennifer Marshall 2024 Update:
• Design consultant performed site survey in January 2024
• Field Meeting with LTBMU Taylor-Tallac Creek Restoration Project design team and stakeholders, including permitting agencies, held on April 3 at Baldwin Beach
• Design - Environmental Planning meeting held on April 5th with District design team
• Design consultant submitted 60% of design plans for gravity sewer and force main slip lining, as well as the Basis of Design Report (BODR) for the PS rehabilitation in May 2024.
• Design package was routed to LTBMU for review and comment
• Design review workshop help at District in July 2024
• Potential permitting issues were discussed - realignment of gravity sewer is not within roadway, realigned sewer located 10 feet off shoulder (still in SEZ)
• Lake water level and constructability issues discussed - decision made to separate gravity sewer realignment as a standalone project, design/construct PS rehab and force main slip lining as combined project (Construct planned for Fall 2025)
• Gravity sewer realignment design temporarily put on hold until potential permitting issues are resolved between LTBMU and Lahontan
• Design consultant submitted 60% design package for PS rehab and force main in November 2024
• District currently reviewing, plans routed to LTBMU for review and comment
01/12/2024 2:37 PM Jennifer Marshall 2023 Update:
• Project was officially kicked off in September with the District’s design consulting team. Kickoff meeting included a site visit with USFS LTBMU to discuss coordination between Baldwin Beach gravity sewer realignment and the Taylor-Tallac Creek Restoration Project.
• Condition assessment of the Baldwin Beach Sewer Pump Station completed in October 2023; confirmed that structure and wet well are in good shape – PS will be rehabilitated.
• 30% drawings and draft specification TOC for gravity sewer realignment and sewer force main slip lining was submitted to District for review in late November.
• District and LTBMU reviewed 30% drawings and provided comments back to design consultant in December.
• Design progressing to 60%, including Baldwin Beach pump station rehab.
•A portion of the existing Baldwin Beach gravity sewer main traverses sensitive areas, including Baldwin Beach and a series of lake-influenced swales between Tallac Creek and Taylor Creek. This project proposes to realign the sewer main to be situated along the compacted road shoulder within the road prism of Baldwin Beach Road; therefore, abandoning approximately 2,200 LF of sewer main and seven (7) sewer manholes located in sensitive areas. The project would increase the District’s ability to service the sewer main and remove potential hazards from an environmentally sensitive area.
