With the completion of the 2021 Fiscal Year and the completion of the required tasks, it is time to report on the final status of the 2020 Water Quality Revised 2nd Payment of the Special Assessment. This will serve as the official notification of the implementation and expense of this special assessment. In 2017, the Tahoe Keys Property Owners Association (TKPOA) received a positive majority vote on RESOLUTION TKPOA #2017-001 for the “Authorization to Pursue Regulatory Approvals for the Use of Aquatic Herbicides to Control Aquatic Invasive Weeds in the Tahoe Keys Lagoons, and the Water Quality Special Assessment”. This positive vote authorized the Board of Directors to approve a Special Assessment of no more than $1,600 per property to fund the actions necessary to obtain regulatory approvals for the use aquatic herbicides. This positive vote allowed the Board of Directors to collect and bill for the “First Payment of the Special Assessment” of $400 in June 2017. This “First Payment” generated approximately $611,600 in funding for this project. On April 4th, 2020 Board of Directors approved RESOLUTION TKPOA No. #2019-0087 to authorize replacement the “Second Payment” of the Approved 2017 Water Quality Special Assessment for “The Authorization to Pursue Regulatory Approvals for the Use of Aquatic Herbicides to Control Aquatic Invasive Weeds in the Tahoe Keys Lagoons”. This board action was approved by the TKPOA Property Owners majority vote. Cont'd on pg. 10 The Keys Breeze Magazine IS THE OFFICIAL PUBLICATION OF THE TAHOE KEYS PROPERTY OWNERS ASSOCIATION

STRENGTH TRAIN FOR A HEALTHIER HEART

Can a short, four-minute workout be as effective as 30 minutes of cardio? While it may sound too good to be true, according to a recent study published in the Journal of Applied Physiology, Nutrition, and Metabolism, you’ll be happy to hear it’s true. Researchers tested traditional treadmill cardio against a fast-paced bodyweight workout, and while improvements in cardiovascular fitness were produced by both, whole-body resistance training presented an added benefit of improved muscle endurance. Meaning fast-paced bodyweight training can improve cardiovascular fitness just as well as running on a treadmill, plus it also provides improvements in muscle endurance. The training method, Peripheral Heart Action Training, is similar to circuit training. It keeps you moving from one exercise to another with minimal to no rest between exercises, while focusing on alternating, non-competing exercises. Keys Breeze

For example, start a strength circuit with a squat followed by an overhead press, then move immediately into a plank. The heart must push the blood from the lower body, to the upper body, and finally into the core. This systematic exercise selection increases the demands on your cardiovascular system, while also challenging more muscle groups than traditional cardiovascular exercise. This style of strength training has become the preferred method for athletes, as the bodyweight workout is more dynamic and enjoyable, so on average, they continue the training program longer than treadmill running alone. Total body movements should be the foundation for any fitness program, whether the goal is fat loss, athletic improvement, or gaining size and strength. While traditional cardiovascular exercise can provide many benefits, improve aerobic fitness and save time with resistance training exercises!

Thank you to our 2020 and 2021 TKPOA Volunteers! TKPOA’s Annual Volunteer Appreciation Reception was held at the Pavilion on the evening of Thursday, December 9th, 2021 to acknowledge our Volunteers’ time and commitment. Due to COVID-19, TKPOA had postponed the annual event in 2020 and held a combined event in 2021 to honor and thank volunteers from both 2020 and 2021. It is the enthusiasm of volunteers and the mutual support of the members working together that makes the Tahoe Keys a great place to live!

FEBRUARY 2022

THE TKPOA APPLICATION FOR THE CONTROL METHODS TEST (CMT) HAS BEEN UNANIMOUSLY APPROVED BY THE TAHOE REGIONAL PLANNING AGENCY (TRPA) GOVERNING BOARD AND LAHONTAN REGIONAL WATER QUALITY CONTROL BOARD By: Kirk Wooldridge (TKPOA General Manager), Gregory J Hoover ( TKPOA Water Quality Manager / AIS Management Coordinator), Moire Breslin (TKPOA Water Quality AIS Technician) After many years of extensive research, planning, scientific testing, and collaboration with numerous stakeholders, the Tahoe Keys Lagoons Aquatic Weed Control Methods Test (CMT) has been approved by both the Lahontan Regional Water Quality Control Board (LRWQCB) and Tahoe Regional Planning Agency (TRPA). This is a historical step in the forward movement to combat the aquatic invasive species problem in the Tahoe Keys Lagoons and potentially Lake Tahoe at large. On January 13th, 2022, the LRWQCB unanimously approved the issuance of Tahoe Keys Lagoons Aquatic Weed Control Methods Test - National Pollution Discharge Elimination System Permit, the Certification of Final Environmental Impact Report (EIR) and Adoption of Resolution Granting an Exemption to the Aquatic Pesticide Discharge Prohibition, and Adoption of Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program. According to the LRWQCB Meeting Agenda, the Board approved the following: “Approved: Resolution for Certification of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Final EIR for the Tahoe Keys Lagoons Aquatic Weed Control Methods Test the Water Board approved adopting a resolution certifying a Final Environmental Impact Report. The Final EIR is required in order for the LRWQCB to consider granting an exemption to a waste discharge prohibition contained in the Water Quality Control Plan for the Lahontan Region. Approved: Granting an Exemption to the Aquatic Pesticide Discharge Prohibition in the Water Quality Control Plan for the Lahontan Region for the Tahoe Keys Lagoons Aquatic Weed Control Methods Test. The LRWQCB approved adopting a resolution granting an exemption to the aquatic pesticide discharge prohibition contained in the Water Quality Control Plan for the Lahontan Region. Approved: Waste Discharge Requirements and National Keys Breeze

Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Permit for the Tahoe Keys Lagoons Aquatic Weed Control Methods Test. The LRWQCB approved adopting an individual NPDES permit for residual aquatic herbicides, rhodamine dye, and lanthanum-modified clay to surface waters within the Tahoe Keys Lagoons and Lake Tallac. Approved: Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program for the Tahoe Keys Lagoons Aquatic Weed Control Methods Test (CMT). The LRWQCB approved adopting a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting.” To access the LRWQCB Board Meeting information, you can access the LRWQCB website at: www.waterboards.ca.gov/lahontan/ www.waterboards.ca.gov/lahontan/board_info/ agenda/2022/jan/jan2022agenda-eng.pdf www.waterboards.ca.gov/lahontan/board_info/ agenda/2022/jan/item2.pdf On January 26th, 2022, the TRPA Governing Board unanimously approved the Certification of the Final Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) and approved the Tahoe Keys Lagoons Aquatic Weed Control Methods Test Project, [TRPA Project File# EIPC201001] as submitted by the Tahoe Keys Property Owners Association (TKPOA). The TRPA Governing Board Approved the following motions: “Approved: A motion to make the findings required by the Tahoe Regional Planning Compact Article VII, Chapter 3 of the TRPA Code of Ordinances, and Article 6 of the Rules of Procedure, and certify the Final EIS for the Tahoe Keys Lagoons Aquatic Weed CMT Project as set forth in Attachment A. Approved: A motion to make the required Chapter 4, 60 and 80 findings as set forth in Attachment B. JANUARY 2022

Approved: A motion to approve the Tahoe Keys Lagoons Aquatic Weed CMT project as set forth in Attachment C.”

Governing-Board-Packet.pdf According to the EIR/EIS, the “proposed CMT Project overview consists of a program to test alternative aquatic weed control methods, both as stand-alone treatments and in combination. Some methods were considered as full alternatives and others were applied in support of these alternatives. The CMT are grouped as follows:

Those approvals are the culmination of more than a decade of work by the Water Quality Department, Environmental Consultants, and the countless volunteer hours dedicated by TKPOA Property Owners on Water Quality Committee (WQC), and Board of Directors. The TKPOA would like to thank all the consultants and stakeholders for all their commitment, hard work, and support in the approval of the application for the Control Methods Test (CMT). Their dedication has been and continues to be invaluable. We thank all the consultants who include - Sierra Ecosystems Associates, Inc., EMKO Environmental, Inc., Dr. Lars Anderson and Weidinger Public Relations. We would also like to thank the various stakeholders who include - Tahoe Water Suppliers Association (TWSA), Zephyr Collaboration, League to Save Lake Tahoe (LTSLT), and Tahoe Resource Conservation District (TRCD). The approval of the CMT permit, by both agencies, does trigger the “Third Payment” of the Water Quality Special Assessment for “The Authorization to Pursue Regulatory Approvals for the Use of Aquatic Herbicides to Control Aquatic Invasive Weeds in the Tahoe Keys Lagoons” [RESOLUTION TKPOA #2017-0001] voted on in 2017 and re-voted on in 2020 [RESOLUTION TKPOA #2019-0087]. The Third Assessment is $600 per property and is planned to be processed by midFebruary. To access the TRPA Governing Board meeting information, you can access the TRPA website at: www.trpa.gov/ www.trpa.gov/wp-content/uploads/January-26Governing-Board-Agenda.pdf www.trpa.gov/wp-content/uploads/January-26-2022Keys Breeze

• Group A methods are herbicide and non-herbicide treatments to achieve extensive reduction in target aquatic weeds (targeting at least 75 percent reduction) within test sites. The Proposed Project tests standalone treatments using Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and State of California approved aquatic herbicides, ultraviolet light, and laminar flow aeration (LFA), as well as combined herbicide and ultraviolet light treatments. Group A herbicide methods would be tested only in the initial year of the test project. Non-herbicide Group A treatments (i.e., ultraviolet light [UV-C], and LFA) may be extended to additional years if monitoring indicates further treatment may be useful. For example, UV-C light may be repeated for a second year, while LFA testing is planned to extend over several years. • Group B methods are non-herbicide maintenance treatments that are applied locally to follow up Group A treatments and control residual target aquatic weeds. Group B methods are intended to be long-term, sustainable control methods capable of maintaining aquatic weed control after initial Group A treatments have been applied to “knock down” the abundant target aquatic weeds in the Lagoons. For example, following a Group A herbicide treatment that achieves at least a 75% reduction in targeted aquatic weeds, Group B methods would be used to further control aquatic weeds and in no case would repeated use of herbicides be permitted as part of the project. Group B methods may include such actions as spot treatments with ultraviolet light, bottom barriers, diver-assisted suction, and diver hand pulling techniques. Use of Group B methods would be implemented in years 2-3, following Group A methods in year 1. Group B methods to be used would be informed by the decision tree shown.” Please see link to the EIS/EIR to read more about the project objectives and overview here: https://www. trpa.gov/wp-content/uploads/documents/archive/ Tahoe-Keys_DRAFT-EIR-EIS.pdf. For your reference, please see the most recent draft of the proposed CMT JANUARY 2022

Sites as follows. Please note this is a draft and is subject to change.

Proposed CMT Sites

Final test sites and proposed test methods for each site may change depending on Spring 2022 conditions and final agency approvals/permits.

The TKPOA Consultants and Water Quality Department are doing everything they can to keep the CMT on track for this spring. The window of application for the herbicides is dependent on water temperature and hydrology but must fall between May 1st and June 15th. There are a couple important gates remaining before we can begin the CMT this spring. • The scientists on the CMT Monitoring Work Group will make an assessment of projected water levels and flows in mid-February • The TKPOA Board of Directors will review the proposed budget, the project permit, and assess our overall readiness to proceed for this spring on or before the February 16th, 2022 Regular Board Meeting at 5PM.

Keys Breeze

Assuming we can proceed with the CMT as planned, there will be a significant impact on boating in the West Lagoon from as early as the beginning of May to as late as mid-July. After the installation of the multiple turbidity curtains, residents and boaters will experience issues with travel, for a minimum of 21 days after installation. There will be absolutely no traffic in or out of the West Lagoon for those behind the turbidity curtains. We will identify and report a more detailed plan in the coming weeks. TKPOA will also provide a map with the locations of where the turbidity curtains will be installed. All homeowners will be thoroughly informed with the rules and regulations of this process. We urge residents to attend the WQC - Town Hall Forum where more information will be provided. It is scheduled February 24th, 2022 from 6PM-8PM to give an update on the CMT project and an outline of the boating restrictions. Zoom Meeting instructions to attend this meeting are available on TKPOA Website at www.tkpoa.com Questions or Request for Additional Information Please check the project website: www.keysweedsmanagement.org, outreach materials and additional information. Also contact the TKPOA Front Desk at 530-542-6444 Monday through Friday 8:30AM - 4:30PM, Saturday and Sunday 10:00AM 2:00PM and additional information can be located on the TKPOA website at www.tkpoa.com.

TKPOA MISSION AND VISION STATEMENTS By Heather Blumenthal, Operations Manager

At the January 19th, 2022 Board of Directors meeting, the TKPOA Vision Ad Hoc Subcommittee presented the Board with a draft revised Mission Statement and Vision Statement for the Tahoe Keys Property Owners Association. Why is a Vision and Mission Statement Important? It is easy to think that a Vision and Mission Statement are interchangeable, however, they are not. An organization’s Vision Statement looks forward and creates the image of the ideal state and objectives that the organization wants to achieve in the future whereas a Mission Statement, summarizes the goals and values of the organization. Having these two important business statements assists an organization, such as the TKPOA, in decision-making, setting goals, and attracting future job candidates and homeowners. What is the Vision Ad Hoc Committee? In late 2020, the Board of Directors established the Vision

Ad Hoc Committee to assist the Board with TKPOA’s re-boot and charting of a new course in a post-pandemic world. The Committee was tasked with creating TKPOA’s new vision through an updated Mission Statement, Vision, and Values and with determining methods of communication to provide this new Vision to the TKPOA Property Owners and the greater community. Committee members have included Peter Grant (2020-current), Joy Curry Norem (2020-current), Connie Haverty (2020-current), Sean Ward (2020), Arlene Olson (2020), Nate Summer (2020), Keiron McCammon (2020-current), and Steve Shepherd (2020-current). The Committee’s January 19th, 2022 presentation was a culmination of the Committee’s hard work with support from Staff in the last year to create and new vision for the Tahoe Keys. After the Committee’s presentation, the Board voted to unanimously approve TKPOA’s new Vision and Mission Statements

TAHOE KEYS PROPERTY OWNERS ASSOCIATION VISION STATEMENT Lake Tahoe’s premier lakeside boating and recreational community delivering an exceptional lifestyle to homeowners.

TAHOE KEYS PROPERTY OWNERS ASSOCIATION MISSION STATEMENT

The Tahoe Keys Property Owners Association is a well maintained and operated recreational-oriented residential association of 1,528 homeowners on the shores of Lake Tahoe. The TKPOA strives to be:

1. A safe and welcoming community boasting a wide range of exceptional amenities, services, activities and facilities for homeowners and their guests to enjoy. 2. A community and association committed to protecting and enhancing the outstanding natural beauty and resources that surround it. 3. A unique setting for lake, boat, and outdoor lovers alike to relish, enjoy and appreciate all that Lake Tahoe has to offer.

With the approval of the new Vision and Mission Statements, the Vision Ad Hoc Committee will begin working on next steps for communication and implementation, including continuing work on a draft Values Statement for future Board review and approval. The next Visions Ad Hoc Committee meeting is scheduled for Wednesday February 23rd, 2022 at 1:00PM.

Birding In and Around the Tahoe Keys The Tahoe Keys offers the best birding opportunities found in Lake Tahoe, with its coves and lagoons, surrounding marshes, and sandbars along the lake’s shoreline. My husband and I have lived in the Keys since 2010 but didn’t start birding until 2015 when we participated in the Tahoe Big Year birding contest, where participants try to record their greatest number of bird species in a single year. We quickly became hooked on birding. In the 2021 Tahoe Big Year contest, I recorded 231 bird species, and for the Christmas Bird Count on December 15th, 2021, I was assigned to cover the Tahoe Keys area, and recorded 1,243 birds-- in a single day! These events are hosted by Tahoe Institute of Natural Sciences (TINS). The coves and large water channels in the Keys attract many types of waterfowl, especially in the winter. Some of these species include Canvasback, Redhead, Scaup, Bufflehead, Gadwall, Northern Shovelers, Teals, Grebes, Coots, Wood Ducks, and Mergansers. We frequently see the Osprey diving for fish in the summer, and sometimes the Bald Eagle trying to steal the Osprey’s fish away. Bald Eagles will also make repetitive passes over American Coots and Grebes, tiring them out before making the final grab. Our huge Cottonwood trees provide perches and cover for predators such as the Red-Shouldered Hawk, Red-Tailed Hawk, Cooper’s Hawk, and Sharp-Shinned Hawk. Also, you may catch a glimpse of the small but powerful Merlin or Pygmy Owl chasing a songbird. At Cove East, watch for the low-flying Northern Harrier, or the hovering American Kestrel and Osprey in the marsh. I’ve seen a number of owls there as well, including the Barn Owl, Pygmy Owl, Long-eared Owl, Great Horned Owl, and Saw-whet Owl. When near the river, look for Black-crowned Night Herons and Egrets along the muddy bank. Many birds reside in Lake Tahoe all year long and can often be seen in the Keys, including the Song Sparrow, Dark-eyed Junco, Stellar’s Jay, Nuthatches, Woodpeckers, Black-billed Magpies, and Mountain Chickadees. Other birds only visit during the summer, such as Warblers, Swallows, Wrens, Bluebirds, Flycatchers, and the beautiful Western Tanager. The birds that amaze me the most are those that migrate a long distance, often resting and feeding here for a few days in the Keys before continuing their long journey. The tiny Rufous Hummingbird travels 2,000 miles, Phalaropes 4,000 miles, and Black-Bellied Plover 5,000 miles! My favorite birding is at Cove East during the Spring and late Summer/Fall migrations, when migratory birds drop down to forage on the sand and mud along the lake’s edge: Ibis, Black-Necked Stilts, Sandpipers, Godwits, Curlew, Avocets, and Plovers. Out on the lake, you might see Tundra Swans, Scoters, and Loons. I marvel at how fragile birds appear and how they can survive migration and such harsh mountain conditions here. It fills me with joy to see them thriving here in the Keys. The sighting of a rare bird will take my breath away. Last spring, a White Wagtail (a resident of Southeast Asia & Europe!), landed on the beach for a brief couple of minutes, before moving on. It may have been looking for a safe place to feed and rest. Please keep birds in mind when walking your dogs. Keep them close, as many resident birds breed here, on the sand and in the marsh, and migratory birds rely on these places, even if it is for a brief period of time. A dog chasing these birds can disrupt the critical time needed for nesting, rest, and feeding. If you have an interest in birdwatching, TINS offers bird walks and hosts a Facebook page “Tahoe Birding.”
