The California Tahoe Conservancy (CTC) is an independent State
agency within the Resources Agency of the State of
California. It was established in its present form by State law
in 1984 (Chapter 1239, Statutes of 1984). Its jurisdiction
extends only to the California side of the Lake Tahoe Basin. The
Conservancy is not a regulatory agency. It was established to
develop and implement programs through acquisitions and site
improvements to improve water quality in Lake Tahoe, preserve
the scenic beauty and recreational opportunities of the region,
provide public access, preserve wildlife habitat areas, and
manage and restore lands to protect the natural environment.
