Case Study
Filtration Avoidance In Surface Water, North Tahoe Public Utilities District, California
With its mountain beauty and deep, clear waters, Lake Tahoe is one of the most popular vacation spots in the California/Nevada area. Approximately 15 million vacationers a year visit the Lake Tahoe Basin for both summer and winter sports. The popularity of Lake Tahoe has resulted in increased traffic, infrastructure, crowds and urban sprawl in this environmentally-sensitive area.
The North Tahoe Public Utilities District wanted to avoid the costly construction and lengthy permit cycle required to build a new filtration system. North Tahoe required a simple, costeffective disinfection solution that would meet the requirements of the Surface Water Treatment Rule and pass strict California Department of Health Services approvals. North Tahoe also required a solution that would fit into their existing infrastructure in a way that maximized the use of expensive land and met environmental permitting requirements.
