Approximately $350,000 was generated last year from the purchase of Nevada Lake Tahoe license plates.

The money is being awarded to nine projects.

Projects include:

• Tahoe East Shore Express – a Tahoe Transportation District project – supports f transit services between Incline Village and Sand Harbor State Park to address safety and congestion issues during peak summer months along the Highway 28 corridor.
• Lake Tahoe Aquatic Invasive Plant Control Project – a Tahoe Resource Conservation District (TRCD) project – targets and controls the establishment of aquatic invasive species plants, such as Eurasian watermilfoil and curly-leaf pondweed, on Nevada shorelines.
• Pilot Implementation of the Lake Tahoe Nearshore Monitoring Framework for Clarity Metrics – a Desert Research Institute (DRI) project – provides for the establishment of monitoring for several key environmental indicators associated with near shore lake clarity, most of which have not been consistently monitored in the past.
