    Regional Fact Sheet: Public Lands Operational Update Overview: As wildfire conditions around Northern California and Northern Nevada remain dangerously high, many public lands around the Tahoe-Truckee region are closed. Please see below for area closures and operational modifications. Elevated Fire Restrictions are in effect in all areas of the Tahoe Basin ● Elevated Fire Season Restrictions prohibit the burning of wood and charcoal on public or private property including residential properties, vacation/short-term rentals, campgrounds, resorts and other recreational areas throughout the Lake Tahoe/Truckee Region until the end of November or until rescinded, including all at California State Parks and USFS sites across the Tahoe Basin. ● Watch for and heed Red Flag fire warnings.

  • Heavenly Mountain Resort Epic Discovery Project Proposed Record
    Proposed Record of Decision Heavenly Mountain Resort Epic Discovery Project U.S. Forest Service Lake Tahoe Basin Management Unit El Dorado and Alpine Counties, California Douglas County, Nevada Background Heavenly Mountain Resort (Heavenly) is a multi-season recreational resort which straddles the Lake Tahoe hydrologic watershed (“Lake Tahoe Basin”) on National Forest System lands near the south shore of Lake Tahoe (Figure 1-1). Heavenly currently operates under a forty-year (40) Ski Area Term Special Use Permit issued by the United States Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Lake Tahoe Basin Management Unit (Forest Service) on May 7, 2002. Unlike many other Forest Service permit holders, extensive resort improvements at Heavenly require multi-agency review and approval including the Forest Service, the Tahoe Regional Planning Agency (TRPA) and the Lahontan Water Quality Control Board. Heavenly has proposed to expand summer uses within its permit area as part of the proposed Epic Discovery Project. In November 2011, Congress enacted the Ski Area Recreational Opportunity Enhancement Act (SAROEA), which amended the National Forest Ski Area Permit Act of 1986 to clarify the authority of the Secretary of Agriculture regarding additional recreational uses of NFS land subject to ski area permits, and for other purposes (16 USC 487b). The SAROEA provides public policy direction to and authority for the Forest Service to approve facilities to support summer and year-round natural resource-based recreation at ski areas. The Act recognizes the public benefits to be gained from expanding public access to year-round recreation opportunities in developed ski areas, including additional employment and economic activity for communities with public land ski areas.
