Water main project in Tahoe Sierra; Do not use water while crews flush water mains

SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. – The South Tahoe Public Utility District will be flushing water mains in the Tahoe Sierra neighborhood between July 26 – August 6, 2021. The District recommends residents not use water while the District is flushing the waterline on their street, as the water may be cloudy or discolored. District staff will distribute door hangers one to two business days before the work is planned and will knock on doors the day the work will occur. “Flushing water mains helps ensure we are providing high quality drinking water to our customers,” said Chris Stanley, manager of Field Operations. “Flushing lines increases water pressure, which can cause leaks to spring up. Please give us a call if you see any water running down the street.”

A strong odor emanating from the Black Bart Avenue area of South Lake Tahoe is due to the local utility district rehabilitating an over 50-year old clarifier and storing about two million gallons of partially treated wastewater in the emergency retention basin, officials announced Monday. The combination of high flows due to increased visitation over the Fourth of July weekend, unusually high temperatures in the valley, and a settling problem with the remaining two secondary clarifiers caused the South Tahoe Public Utility District to temporarily store the partially treated water, but officials say the wastewater treatment plant has stabilized and the district is returning the water and conducting cleaning operations.
