Eagle Point Campground upgrades coming

Improvements to Eagle Point Campground at Emerald Bay State Park are expected this summer.

Bids on the three projects at the Lake Tahoe campground are being taken until May 13.

The first project is to update the campground so it meets Americans with Disabilities Act requirements. This includes upgrading existing parking, making paths accessible, and removing and replacing select comfort stations and combination buildings.

Other projects include improving four lift stations, removing existing pump equipment and controllers, extending the potable water treatment building on the south end and installing new equipment, as well making electrical improvements.

All work is estimated to cost up to $2.1 million.

The work should take no more than six months to complete.
