ZEPHYR COVE, Nev. - A new, innovative bubble curtain has been installed across the Elk Point Marina entrance to lessen the possibility of another weed infestation.
Installed earlier this month, the bubble curtain has perforated air hose lines on the bottom of the channel that create walls of bubbles that help slow plant fragments from entering the treated area. Unlike the bubble curtains in the channels of the Tahoe Keys, this bubble curtain works in reverse, to keep plant fragments out, rather than in.
Charles Jennings, the current vice president of the Elk Point Country Club Homeowners Association, noticed thick green and brown plants dominating the bottom of the marina when he moved to the area four years ago. The plants were knocked back last fall but had the possibility of returning, so the process of the installation of a bubble curtain was initiated.

May 13, 2021 - Washington - Senators Dianne Feinstein and Alex Padilla (both D-Calif.) on Wednesday joined with Senators Catherine Cortez Masto and Jacky Rosen (both D-Nev.) to
introduce bipartisan legislation to extend authorization of the
Lake Tahoe Restoration Act.
The original Lake Tahoe Restoration Act was passed in 2000 and authorized $300 million for the restoration of the lake and surrounding basin. The current authorization, which was passed in 2016, will expire in 2024. Reauthorizing the bill will prevent an interruption in conservation and restoration planning.
Companion legislation was introduced in the House by Representatives Mark Amodei (R-Nev.), John Garamendi (D-Calif.), Dina Titus (D-Nev.), Susie Lee (D-Nev.), and Steven Horsford (D-Nev.).
