North Tahoe PUD Secline Beach Enhancement Project

The North Tahoe Public Utility District is initiating the Secline Beach Enhancement Project in Kings Beach, California, to improve amenities, access, and pedestrian and bike circulation while preserving the beach's existing character. A primary goal of the project is the installation of permanent, ADA-compliant restroom facilities for men and women, featuring security lighting at entrances. Additional improvements include an ADA-accessible rack for up to 14 stand-up paddleboards and kayaks. The project is categorized under NAICS code 237990 and is currently in the presolicitation phase, with a public review period for the Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration running from September 11, 2026, to October 13, 2026. The project must adhere to strict environmental and safety regulations, including CEQA and TRPA guidelines, and requires compliance with the California Regional Water Quality Control Board-Lahontan Region NPDES permit. Technical specifications require that all improvements account for Griff Creek 100-year flood projections and a FEMA National Flood Insurance Program elevation certificate. Safety requirements include the implementation of a Fire Suppression and Management Plan and adherence to State of California Health and Safety Code Section 7050.5 regarding the discovery of human remains. Project administration is led by Engineering Manager Nathan Chorey, P.E.
