ACTIVISM HIGHLIGHTS
2018-2025

The following timeline traces my activities related to regulatory programs in the Lake Tahoe region of California and Nevada following my mid-2018 retirement from public service as Senior Water Resource Control Engineer and “Chief” of the North Lahontan Basin Regulatory Unit of the California Regional Water Quality Control Board, Lahontan Region (Lahontan Water Board), a territory spanning Eastern California from Oregon to the Mojave Desert.

2018: The Tahoe Keys –  Aquatic Invasive Species

One of the many reasons I retired was because the Tahoe Regional Planning Agency (TRPA) and the agency I worked for were involved with the Tahoe Keys Property Owners Association (TKPOA) to develop plans to poison the waterways adjoining Lake Tahoe in a desperate attempt to control aquatic invasive weeds to support recreational boating.  TRPA’s Director Joanne Marchetta and Chief Counsel John Marshall pushed this hard in a meeting I attended, saying they would help fund it and that it had to be done. Knowing there were allowances for herbicides use only after all other non-chemical means of control were examined and determined infeasible, this “Project” was moving in a way I really wanted no part in. I was fortunate to hire staff with considerable expertise in permitting such matters from the State Water Resources Control Board and the permitting chores fell to him and my replacement, under a new Executive Officer at the Lahontan Water Board, new to Lake Tahoe. One of my last meetings with TRPA staff as an employee was to outline the necessary components of an Environmental Impact Report for Lahontan Water Board and TRPA for the Tahoe Keys Aquatic Weed Test Control “Project.”

In the summer of 2018 there was a terrible bloom of algae in the shallow, artificial boating-waterways of the Tahoe Keys subdivision. This was a condition that occurred with some regularity, but the density of algae in early summer was remarkable and I suspected a Harmful Algal Bloom or HAB as has been spreading across CA and other western states. So far as I know, I was the first to report to Lahontan Water Board a HAB in Lake Tahoe, which their testing subsequently confirmed. HABs have reoccurred there since, and are harmful because they emit their own toxins into the water and have other adverse effects on ecosystems. The aquatic weeds and all the rest came in with conversion of large parts of the Upper Truckee River marsh to a recreational boat-in residential subdivision and Lake Tahoe’s largest marina starting in the 1960s. Lake Tahoe has suffered its ills ever since.

The “Project was ultimately approved and carried out, including an unanticipated “lost season” of boating, though the Sierra Club filed suit, under direction from a retired former staff I hired, Ms. Tobi Tyler, also an environmental engineer, and ecologist. That suit was ultimately won by Sierra Club, with the permit decision of the Water Board vacated—and the court ordered the test data from the illegal chemical applications could not be used to inform future projects to apply herbicides as punishment, a literal “fruit of the poison tree” that was the decision. The various tests are over and are being assessed for TRPA by other experts. The weeds are back in many areas. Some things worked, some not so great. From personal observations, an area treated with tryclopyr (poison) produced blue-tinged foaming algae unlike I’ve ever seen, which washed up on the shorelines and died with a horrible stench for weeks.

I was not directly involved with this Project as a choice, but my partner at the time lived in the Tahoe Keys, and so I was aware it was occurring for several years. This is not really part of the “timeline” but plays in to subsequent events on the timeline.

2019: Opposing Telecommunications Towers, Generally

I became aware that a large number of people were opposing TRPA approvals of wireless macro-towers for telecommunications and internet services around the Lake Tahoe region based on the many unexamined impacts, and agency and wireless-industry desires. I listened in on some meetings online and made some public comments at the time but COVID-19 lockdowns and aftermath were occurring. In 2019 TRPA illegally changed its policy to allow general public comment only at the end of long, open-ended meetings and thus dispersed many of the activists against wireless.

Early 2020: Ski Run Blvd. Macrotower

I became aware of a macro-tower approved on Ski Run Boulevard in the City of S. Lake Tahoe CA, where I reside, by the City Planning Commission, a lay group of volunteer-planners appointed to serve by the elected City Counsel. A family on a property adjacent to this 112-foot industrial monstrosity was opposing joint City and TRPA planning efforts to approve the Project. This was the Eisenstecken family, long-time south shore residents, Monica, mother of two young boys, her husband and father. The latter built the family home with his own hands after years of blue-collar work at Heavenly Ski Resort, on property he purchased decades before. It was modest, but with magnificent Lake views. Monica was the family’s public face.

Even though Monica was a community organizer and aided by attorneys and others I felt she would be outmaneuvered and steam-rolled by these agencies, who I knew well. I joined league with her (seasoned) attorneys and a small group of her supporters to see what might be done to stop the “Ski Run Tower Project.” That is where the timeline really begins.

The City Appeal on the Ski Run Tower

On 6-13-19 the City Planning Comm. approved (3-1) a Special Use Permit for Verizon to build a 112-foot monopine macrotower at the corner of Needle Peak Rd. and Ski Run Blvd. on the property adjacent to Eisenstecken. A Categorical Exemption from environmental review meant “skip that.” The City issued its SUP on 6-25-19 with conditions, including to “utilize” the SUP within one year or it would be “null and void.” Verizon failed to do that and a federal judge later let it slide rather than invalidate the SUP (without due regard for law per attorney associates).

The City Appeal on Ski Run Tower - Continued

On 6-27-19 Eisenstecken filed an appeal of the SUP, which was scheduled for a Hearing before City Council on 8-6-19 but, in response to public outcry and 3800 pages of public comments, was ultimately postponed to 1-14-20.

I testified orally at that City Council appeal Hearing against the tower with 27 others, in a packed kangaroo courtroom presided over by TRPA-employee and double-agent appointed as Mayor, Devin Middlebrook; the appeal was defeated 3-2 in favor of a handful of conflicted supporters, Verizon, ATT, Tahoe Prosperity Center (quasi-govt. agency “partner”).

The City had only to issue a City Construction Permit to Verizon, but TRPA had to approve the tower for height and scenic purposes and also issue a TRPA Construction Permit. Early email comments to TRPA followed the City appeal denial, naively thinking (then) TRPA is a bona-fide environmental protection enterprise. Also submitted to City of S. Lake Tahoe. No response, of course. TRPA was processing a 2019 application from Verizon for the Ski Run Tower behind closed doors.

Caldor Wildfire & Ski Run Tower

After the City appeal hearing in January 2021 approving the Ski Run macrotower things went quiet with City and TRPA. The big event that year came in August when the Caldor Fire began near Placerville, approximately 50 miles from Lake Tahoe.

October 2021

TRPA Permit Hearing

As the Caldor Fire was coming under control, on 10-14-21, the TRPA conducted a hearing before its appointed Hearings Officer on the Ski Run Tower (announced a week before). Remote meetings were still being held due to COVID-19 concerns. Hearings Officers are also appropriately referred to as TRPA’s “HOs.” Note that 10-14-21 is over two years and four months from City’s 6-25-19 Special Use Permit issuance with its one-year expiration provision.

And what did Verizon do in all this time to “utilize” its SUP? It notified TRPA circa January 2020 that it won the January appeal over its City permit. That’s it. It didn’t matter; TRPA accepted the City’s SUP as valid. In other developments, the landowner for the tower obtained a TRPA permit and cut 31 trees for fire safety purposes, “piece-mealing” the cutting as simply for fire safety without regard to the tower application, the Tahoe Regional Piece-mealing Agency in action.

In this case a conflicted HO, Andrew Strain, was replaced on the insistence of Eisenstecken’s attorneys just three days before the hearing by HO Marsha Burch, a contract employee known for her advocacy of wireless propagation. She purported to issue approval after the hearing and review of the extensive public record, tens of thousands of pages of technical, scientific, legal and other info. The approval was notably without any statement of basis, just a summary approval based on the Staff Report (8 pages), mouthing the “findings.” This was the corrupt lead-up to the corrupt appeal proceeding that followed, TRPA’s HO just voting the “staff recommendation,” as always.

Marsha Burch is now on permanent staff at the TRPA. That set the stage for an Appeal Hearing before the TRPA Governing Board. The audio of the Hearing at which I and the attorneys spoke is currently available on TRPA’s archive of videos, based on date.

TRPA Appeal Hearing and Court Action

Eisenstecken appealed the 10-14-21 approval by TRPA’s HO on a number of grounds, filing a Notice of Appeal on 11-2-21, and a Statement of Appeal (also called Opposition) on 12-1-21, notably not including microplastic litter concerns from the tower’s proposed plastic cladding. That came a short time later when an associate on the Eisenstecken advocacy team inspected monopine macrotowers at several other sites and found large amounts of waste needles discarded as litter and garbage on the sensitive Tahoe landscapes. TRPA was informed of the conditions on the other sites, and the appellants waited . . . and waited. TRPA had to address the “new information” even though the microplastics were not discussed in the appeal filings. It was too substantial to just ignore.

Though TRPA Rules of Procedure indicates a hearing should have ensued in December ‘21, or January
’22, at the latest, TRPA delayed a Governing Board hearing to appeal the HO’s decision until 3-23-22. The reason was to give Verizon time to hire consultants and produce a report I term as “junk science” which TRPA used to cover the litter and microplastic discharges from its many towers, and to add an idiotic and unrealistic Condition 11 to the HOs approval to clean up wastes twice per year. (See the details beyond this overview in the Third Amended Complaint filed 5-6-22.)

The March 2022 Hearing ensued, and the attorneys and Tahoe AL testified and submitted written comments. This corrupt proceeding is also available on TRPA audio archive online. The whole thing was staged with Verizon prevailing. No public notice was published in the newspaper as required. Appeals are seldom if ever won. Staff at TRPA is infallible. Ha! So the appeal was lost, Mr. Bass from the City the only supporter on the TRPA Governing Board. Litigation was already underway by Eisenstecken but within the 60-day timeline was amended to incorporate the “TRPA Final Action” on the appeal into a Proposed Third Amended Complaint filed 5-6-22. This is the master document that lays the case out in federal court, and which was upheld against TRPA in early 2025, while dismissing others (City, private persons) from the litigation. That essentially put the TRPA timeline with regard to the Eisenstecken litigation on pause as the court went into silent limbo for three years. I point out it took three years for court action on this motion; justice delayed is justice denied, in favor of Verizon, which proceeded toward building the tower.

Petitions to Lahontan Regional Water Board & State Water Board

A new timeline was started through email to the Executive Officer of the Lahontan Regional Water Quality Control Board (Tahoe AL’s former employer) beginning with the failure of TRPA to uphold the appeal. A joint appearance before the Lahontan Water Board with colleagues occurred on May 14, 2022, in which physical evidence of the plastic wastes was presented, along with testimony of effects on water quality, prohibitions on waste being ignored, illegal regulations agency malfeasance, etc. Tahoe AL, Eisenstecken, Jinkens, Aaron, Lebovitz and Alex from our citizen-activist team testified. The Water Board feigned interest, as it turns out, and has taken no action concerning microplastics as of late 2025 but to hasten further microplastics contamination in Lake Tahoe. The timeline unfolds as follows in the supporting documents.

Lahontan Water Board Executive Officer Issues Orders

In the September of 2022 the Lahontan Water Board Executive Officer finally issued orders to a handful of monopine tower owners and allied agencies on the CA side of Lake Tahoe to report on the tower wastes, an action by law followed by adoption of waste discharge requirements. The six reports ordered nothing very specific, and the whole matter was dismissed by the Lahontan Water Board, illegally in my view, after a review of the reports provided. It lined up behind the “partner agencies” involved in a flagrant and sickening violation of every law and regulation I ever practiced in my years at the Lahontan Water Board. Those agents would be at TRPA, USFS-Lake Tahoe Basin, El Dorado County, City of SLT, and the fire department in Meyers, all working to ensure plastic litter and microplastic pollution of the Lake Tahoe watershed by the world’s most profitable industry, the telecoms, goes unabated or becomes the general public’s problem.

Brief findings dismissed impacts and illegally waived any additional specific waste discharge requirements for all faux-pine macrotowers, while assigning responsibility for all private monopine macrotower wastes to other public agencies and the telecoms. It was a waste of time for all involved to avoid enforcing the prohibitions in its regulations. We once again petitioned the Lahontan Water Board for its dismissal and inaction to adopt waste discharge requirements on April 13, 2023. This was in expectation that there would be no response so that its inaction could later be timely petitioned to the State Water Resources Control Board in Sacramento.

That summer 2023 scientists disclosed the extraordinary contamination of Lake Tahoe with microplastics, third worst among 38 large water bodies tested globally. The ignored petition to the Lahontan Regional Board was subsequently forwarded with additional information in a petition request to State Board on July 11, 2023. (The original email was inadvertently deleted.) The State Board essentially rejects all such petitions, mostly by in action—mute silence, the implication being “we’ll only address you in court”—and they have armies of attorneys on the State personnel roster. I knew that, but made the petition for the public record. The State Board took no action within the 120 days allowed and there the petition ended, with insufficient funding for litigation at the time.

The simple facts are the Lahontan Water Board had neither the expertise, capacity, or priority to deal with microplastic wastes from the telecoms or the marinas and piers the Lahontan Water Board and TRPA (and others) had enabled over decades. Plastics are everywhere! They have limited control plans for plastic wastes they fail and refuse to implement to the detriment of Lake Tahoe.

With no action by the Lahontan Water Board the Tahoe Mountain News published an opinion piece I wrote that was very critical of the agencies, Vol. 30, No. 5, November 2023. With exposing the corruption, I urged the public to act to interrupt the illegal activities concerning towers and microplastics.

Tahoe Al's Appeal on the Ski Run Tower Plan Revision and Miller V. TRPA

In August 2022 our team was aware the macrotower foundation construction on Ski Run was occurring and learned through the TRPA’s online permit database the TRPA staff had approved a major foundation design change (after all the appeals, including a separate appeal by Eisenstecken to the Federal Communications Commission), doubling the size. This was done without adequately considering impacts to ground water, or doing any required environmental review for the plan change. I appealed the plan revision, with two associates joining me. I knew I wouldn’t win an appeal, but under the legal rules TRPA would have to hold a hearing in October or November 2022, and the project construction could only proceed in legal limbo or delay to 2023 due to fall/winter cessation of construction (under TRPA rules). My main purpose was to get in the TRPA Governing Board’s face again about microplastics from the towers—and also microplastics I’d discovered in and over Lake Tahoe – docks and marina surfaces made of plastic composites that were decaying into Lake Tahoe! TRPA violated all their own rules to illegally move the Hearing up to late September. They rolled me in their kangaroo court of appeals and I nonetheless had my say, both in writing and in oral testimony about many things before the Legal Committee and Governing Board. Construction on the tower was completed except for the adorning plastics before October 15.

So egregious was TRPA’s treatment of me with the appeal that just before Thanksgiving 2022 I filed a complaint in Federal District Court-Sacramento District. The complaint was served in early 2023 by an associate, the first such service to Julie Regan, the then-new Executive Director of TRPA. The lawsuit was conducted pro se – a Latin term meaning I was representing myself without the aid of an attorney of record. I did my best with a new adventure and learned from my mistakes. The case was strong and was litigated over the course of 2023 with the sometimes-aid of an associate knowledgeable in the law complimenting my skills. I was learning a lot about the TRPA and their subverted regulations and made a lot of commotion in 2023 at TRPA Governing Board meetings on lawsuit issues and other things, keeping the public apprised of the lawsuit from my side through TRPA postings of my comments.

This I’ll call this the Miller v. TRPA lawsuit timeline and the most substantive filings of Tahoe AL are included here, whereas TRPA’s are not; they are fully in the court record and their lies can be understood by references. The Magistrate Judge’s proposed Order, the court’s findings upon which the case was dismissed, was just a gloss reciting TRPA’s regulations. The whole case from the lawyers and judges was a sham from top to bottom, as any reader of the filings can verify. They jointly ignored every violation of law major and minor, court granting all deference to TRPA and dismissing all causes of action with a few paragraphs (including many causes unearthed to the surprise of all and perhaps “unripe” for the court to address). Note: I didn’t “lose” anything in the corrupt court; it was a test “for the record.” I consider the court failed, enabling further widespread environmental destruction by TRPA. See how it’s done here. Additional filings, including TRPA’s, are available on request.

FBI Complaint

A federal complaint I finally lodged in August 2023 with the FBI-Sacramento branch by certified U.S. mail, after attempts to hand-deliver it were rebuffed by federal, state and local law enforcement agencies; no one would receive it. (Details in Addendum.) This was filed to address illegal TRPA meeting procedures in violation of open meeting laws that were deliberate and ongoing to deprive public participation. No response or reply was received. Round filed? Draw your own conclusions. TRPA finally changed public comment procedures in 2025 to (minimally) comply with the law, on the advice of TRPA attorney St. Michel. The Complaint is published for the first time here.

Miller V. TRPA and Aftermath

In early 2024, there was a spill of microplastic “beads” from a shorezone structure and a citizen-led cleanup that made the news. I likewise used the incident to press my issues in public comments to TRPA. The decision came in from the Judge in my lawsuit, a simple dismissal without much to say, supporting the Magistrate Judge’s recommendations, but for one exception: she cited a preliminary ruling she had made against TRPA in a case unknown to me filed by a person named Harrosh. It took some time to grasp the implications, and it was a back-handed gift of sorts.

I filed an appeal, but shortly later decided I was done with the matter and Court of Appeals in favor of other strategies to promote my concerns against TRPA. Despite the dismissal, I continued to press my court filings in the public record before TRPA as evidence of it crimes and pursued other issues with TRPA that arose. I successfully opposed a new plastic pier approval, threatening to sue if wood, metal and stone were not used instead of plastic. The applicant agreed to take that path as TRPA advised. In addition, in 2024 I launched a new musical initiative to promote original music in the community, mine and that of others, with quarterly Songwriter Showcase Concerts and a new website, TahoeALmusic.com.

2025 Petitions to TRPA Following on Miller V. TRPA

In early 2025 I collected the information I’d learned in the course of my lawsuit with TRPA into a series of petitions to address grievances with their illegal regulations. In March I sent “Petition for Redress of Grievances for Compact Violations From Provisions In the Code of Ordinances and Rules of Procedure; and Petition to Undertake Microplastics Environmental Problem Assessment.”

In April, May and June I became in I became involved in an appeal over an approval of a multi-family housing project in the City of South Lake Tahoe pursuant to an agreement the City has with TRPA, and was illegally denied an appeal hearing by the City. Such illegal agreements were a subject of my March petition and in April I spoke at TRPA and augmented the petition with writings concerning illegal “Memoranda of Agreement” TRPA has with locals governments in California, and I commented and spoke before the City Council in June. In the summer reports were coming out from Tahoe Environmental Research Group and in July I undertook and published “An Independent Report on Lake Tahoe Water Quality Based on a Review of Available Public Information Part 1: A Conceptual Model for Lake Tahoe with a Focus On Microplastics and the Total Maximum Daily Load Regulation for Lake Tahoe .”

In August I augmented that report with, “Part 2: Focusing on Review of the Tahoe Environmental Research Center’s 2025 State of the Lake Report and Recommended Actions to Aid the Restoration of Lake Tahoe.” I spoke before Governing Board and the TERC Director at TRPA in August. I shared the report with the Lahontan Water Board and later met with its new (2025) Executive Officer to discuss my concerns. The news is not good and follows on TRPA’s long-time abandonment of its regulatory mission for smoke and mirrors called “procedures” that have little to do with the law. It is written for the lay person and is unique with regard to literature I am aware of.

The foregoing TIMELINE summarizes my activist work since my 2018 retirement, and represents only a portion of the writings and speaking I have done on behalf of Lake Tahoe and the people. In some respects my work has undergone a change, with agency change coming slowly if at all. While recommending changes for improvement I have no expectation that changes will occur, so I have become a reporter and chronicler of the agency actions and deficiencies to inform the public of what is occurring and empower their participation. Without that the regional downslide can be expected to continue. My work represents the ongoing story of how Lake Tahoe and its extraordinary qualities are being destroyed at the hands of incompetent agencies like the TRPA and others who have abandoned the laws and the public trust. No one will be able to say they didn’t know if they bother to read my public records, as they grow here on my website.
