RESOLUTION NO. 3324-25
A RESOLUTION BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
OF THE SOUTH TAHOE PUBLIC UTILITY DISTRICT AUTHORIZING AND DIRECTING ITS STAFF
TO REQUEST THE REVOCATION OF CERTAIN SURFACE WATER RIGHTS
WHEREAS, the South Tahoe Public Utility District ("STPUD") currently holds water
rights A018021, A018030, A018031, A018038, A018039, and A019629, originally
acquired from Tahoe Paradise Water Company, allowing for diversions from the
Upper Truckee River, Coyote Creek, and an unnamed tributary to Saxon Creek;
and
WHEREAS, STPUD has never developed facilities to divert, treat, or distribute water
under these water rights, and intake, treatment, and distribution infrastructure do
not exist; and
WHEREAS, due to water quality, quantity, and environmental constraints, it is not
cost-effective or practical to exercise these water rights, and the District is instead
pursuing a water right under A023393 to Lake Tahoe for 10,808 acre-feet; and
WHEREAS, in accordance with Water Code and State Water Resources Control
Board regulations, STPUD may request the revocation of water rights that are no
longer used and for which the reservoir or diversion facilities are incapable of
storing or diverting water;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Board of Directors of South Tahoe Public
Utility District hereby:
(1) Authorizes and directs the Staff to submit to the State Water Resources Control
Board six (6) Requests for Revocation of Water Rights (A018021, A018030, A018031,
A018038, A018039, and A019629) on behalf of the District, true and correct copies
of which are attached hereto as exhibits 1 through 6.
(2) Requests full revocation of these water rights on the grounds that the reservoirs
or diversion facilities no longer exist or are incapable of storing or diverting water
and no water is used under these rights.
(3) Waives Districts hearing and notice rights otherwise required for the processing
of the requests for resolution stated herein.
(4) Directs Staff to take any and all actions necessary to effectuate the revocation
of these water rights.
WE, THE UNDERSIGNED, do hereby certify that the above and foregoing
Resolution No. 3324-25 was duly and regularly adopted and passed by the Board
1 of Directors of the South Tahoe Public Utility District at a Regular meeting held on
the eighteenth day of December, 2025, by the following vote:
