is not the only thing that shrinking and with paul stands of pine surrounding them senators called for a temporary emergency declaration in the lake tahoe basin to override regulations that hinder fuel reductions the number one issue facing the basin is fire reid said it's time to cut through the red tape senator dianne feinstein democrat from california suggest suggested declaring a temporary emergency in a whole basin after hearing a presentation in glen book by the nevada fire save council senators harry reid never from nevada and john and signed republican from nevada immediately responded to the i basin would allow the u s forest service and fire agencies to reduce the forest fuel in the basin without going through regulatory agencies and their requirements the three senators along with republican dean heller kempthorne and campbell stopped at a fields reduction fire council pointed to a heavily wooded stream near the senators and noted that similar stream zones acted as whitson angora fire it is an example of how regulations to protect water quality have hindered efforts to treat the forest clarity a lot has been done to control soil erosion but while that was going on another threat was growing wild far miller added the real challenge is finding the balance to protect the lake from erosion and to protect the lake fro number one issue facing the basin is fire we have to do something to speed things up reed said the senator's point to regulations by the whole regional planning agency the la regional water quality control board and even the county air quality district which slowed the efforts to treat the forest for example the u s forest service is limited in its controlled burns because air quality regulations prohibit burning on need for an emergency
