Pathway
Pathway partner agencies include the Tahoe Regional Planning Agency, USDA Forest Service, the Lahontan Regional Water Quality Control Board and the Nevada Division of Environmental Protection. The agencies are working together to update important resource management plans for the Lake Tahoe Basin. These regional plan updates will guide land management, resource management and environmental regulations over the next 20 years. The plans will address many areas, including the following:
-
How much additional development will take place at Lake Tahoe by the year 2027? What kind of growth is on the horizon?
-
What will be the state of lake clarity, forest health, water quality and recreation by 2027?
-
How will regional plans help reduce the threat of
catastrophic wildfires in the Lake Tahoe Basin?
-
How will Lake Tahoe agencies revise their long-range
plans to create a unified vision for Tahoe's future?
-
How will Lake Tahoe's startling beauty be preserved
while maintaining quality of life for those who live and visit here?
Pathway is an effort to ensure coordination between
different public agencies and to share resources and expertise while
inviting public participation. By working together, each agency's
regional plan should be consistent and collaborative. Pathway is
providing the public with an unprecedented opportunity to help create
a vision for the Tahoe Basin.
