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.

    This is the third year in a row that this campground has been closed for renovation. Just now they are getting bids? What a waste of one of the best campgrounds in the country. Classic government bungle-fest. Someone should be fired.

    Yeah Atomic, maybe they can hire some ignition switch engineers from GM or some nuclear reactor engineers from GE/Japan or some throttle cable engineers from Toyota, or some War planners from Haliburton.
