Incident Update #7:
Friday, July 25, 2024 – 4:00 pm
Carnelian Bay West beach remains closed and reduced health advisory area in effect
This is an update for Friday, July 26, 2024, for the Carnelian Bay beach closures and health advisory zone.
While water quality results at the site of last Thursday’s underground pipeline strike and sewer spill in Carnelian Bay continue to trend in a positive direction, Carnelian West Beach will remain closed through at least Sunday, July 28.
Officials are continuing to evaluate the results daily and the health advisory will be lifted or modified after at least two days of data showing that levels are consistently below California beaches water quality standards.
Placer County’s health advisory area has been reduced to the area between 5146 North Lake Blvd and 4600 North Lake Blvd. This advisory is anticipated to remain in place through at least Sunday, July 28.
Residents and visitors are advised that contact with the lake water in the updated advisory area could cause illness due to elevated bacteria levels.
Water quality samples are continuing to be taken from the Lake Tahoe shoreline inside and outside the advisory zone. The results have a required minimum processing time of 24 hours.
Placer County and the NTPUD will continue to provide updates every afternoon on the ongoing health advisory and closure areas as ongoing water quality test results are evaluated.
