It's a draw in League vs. TRPA on Shorezone Plan

So who won? Both the League to Save Lake Tahoe and the Tahoe Regional Planning Agency have hailed a Feb. 29 decision by the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals regarding TRPA's Shorezone Plan, a comprehensive document which governs lakeshore development, including the number of piers and buoys allowed on the lake.

Court Orders New Study of Boat Buoys on Lake Tahoe

On Feb. 29 the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit ruled that the Tahoe Regional Planning Agency (TRPA) acted illegally in not analyzing the boat pollution impacts for over one thousand illegal boat mooring buoys in the lake and that it must do so before it can approve other lake development.

The appeals court upheld a lower court ruling that found proposed amendments to the shoreline development plan were invalid. Under the new ruling, TRPA will retain discretion in how it will conduct a new study of the impacts of legalizing these buoys.
