In the NewsEPA Region 9 Presents 2001 Environmental Award to LTEEC Subgroup
date posted: February 22 2002
The LTEEC Partners in Conservation Working Group was recently awarded the EPA Region 9 Environmental Award “Recognizing Environmental Leaders in the Pacific Southwest” on November 28, 2001 in San Francisco. Members of the Partners in Conservation group were there to receive the award.
The Partners in Conservation Working Group (or Lake Tahoe Best Management Practices Working Group) is dedicated to non-point source pollution prevention and resource protection. The group promotes innovative management practice techniques and designs to inform stakeholders about their role in improving the Lake Tahoe Basin watershed. The group has been getting its message out through a variety of mechanisms including training sessions for realtors, contractors, homeowners associations and chambers of commerce; the development of a handbook, the Home Landscaping Guide for Lake Tahoe and Vicinity, and aggressive media outreach. The group’s work will ultimately result in reduced stormwater pollution entering tributaries and the lake.
