RESPONSE TO COMMENTS ON THE DEIS B o u l d e r B a y C o m m u n i t y E n h a n c e m e n t P r o g r a m P r o j e c t E I S The ARUP study referenced in the DEIS shows how the calculations were prepared. TRPA has a copy of this study in their files. Speaker 18 – Alan Tolhurst, APC Chairman Comment 18-a: Comment Summary – Would the dustless sweeper proposed for the project be available for use by public agencies? The availability of the Boulder Bay sweeper to entities outside of the project area is not part of the Project and is unknown at this time. TRPA could make this a condition of the project permit or Boulder Bay could enter into contracts with public agencies directly. Comment 18-b: Comment Summary – Will the TAU transfer require a ratio – for example 1.5 units retired for every unit transferred to Boulder Bay? TAUs for the Boulder Bay project are transferred at a one to one ratio based on TRPA Code. Speaker 19 – Charlie Donohue, APC Vice-Chairman, NV Division of State Lands Comment 19-a: Comment Summary – Baltabrin units – where are those from? Are the units verified by TRPA? The Baltabrin units are off-site TAUs. The units are verified by TRPA in the August 5, 1994 verification letter, which recognizes 19 TAUs. Table 4.1-6 of the DEIS identifies the existing and proposed tourist and residential units by alternative. Comment 19-b: Comment Summary – Has the PLRM model been run for the Boulder Bay project area? Please see Master Response 1 and Appendix AB of the FEIS. The supplemental water quality analysis utilized an LSPC based model in order to base analysis on available daily climate data instead of annualized climate data, which the PLRM model uses. The output results are the same unit, total sediment per year in Tons, but the results from the LSPC are considered more robust. Comment 19-c: Comment Summary – Coverage – will Boulder Bay do mitigation instead of paying excess land coverage mitigation fees? Please see responses to comments 212-d, 212-f and 322-z. Boulder Bay has agreed to permanently retire onsite land coverage in lieu of paying excess coverage mitigation fees. Comment 19-d: Comment Summary – Affordable housing – how will the proposed units be managed? The affordable housing units will be deed restricted as affordable based on TRPA Code requirements and will be operated (rented) by Boulder Bay. Comment 19-e: Comment Summary – TAU transfer – have the local jurisdictions approved the transfer of units out of the City of South Lake Tahoe? Section 34.4 of the TRPA Code of Ordiances outlines the process for transferring TAUs and ERUs. The City of South Lake Tahoe has approved the transfer. See section 4.1 of the DEIS, Impact analysis LU-2 for details. Comment 19-f: Comment Summary – What is the sequence of the TAU transfer for the units being removed from SEZ?

Speaker 20 – Chuck Greene, APC Member Comment 20-a: Comment Summary – Can TRPA staff respond to some of the comments on the adequacy of the transportation analysis? Please refer to Master Responses 2, 3, and 4. Speaker 21 – Mike LeFevre, APC Member, USDA Forest Service Comment 21-a: Comment Summary – What is a green roof, included in the Boulder Bay proposal? A green roof is a roof of a building that is partially or completely covered with vegetation and a growing medium, planted over a waterproofing membrane. It may also include additional layers such as a root barrier and drainage and irrigation systems (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_roof).
