About the Project


OurTahoe.org is facilitating a public dialogue about Best Management Practices beginning Wednesday, March 19. BMPs are required on all Tahoe properties to prevent erosion and promote water clarity. In this conversation, called BMP Talks, five officials who work and regulate BMPs will have a chance to work with five residents who care about the lake, but who have not implemented BMPs. Together, in several face-to-face meetings and online conversations, participants will try to find a way to make BMPs better for the community. Over the next several weeks, this small group of specialists and homeowners will have an opportunity to discuss the situation, define the central problem as you see it, talk through possible solutions, and come to a judgment about what ought to (and can be) done.
