Lake Tahoe West Restoration Partnership
The Lake Tahoe West Restoration Partnership is designing and implementing restoration actions across 59,000 acres of the West shore of the Lake Tahoe Basin to protect communities and restore ecological resilience.
Spanning from Emerald Bay to Burton Creek State Park, several critical elements make the Lake Tahoe West Restoration Partnership distinctive: a collaboratively developed large landscape-scale approach; a 10-year strategy to restore the forests, watersheds, recreational opportunities, and communities on Lake Tahoe’s western shore; and an interdisciplinary science team informing the effort and modeling the tradeoffs of management actions. Alignment and acceleration of planning, permitting, and implementation schedules will occur where feasible.
