SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. - Half of a $1 billion plan to protect Lake Tahoe is off to a good start, but the next five years are critical to combatting pollution of the alpine lake, Sen. Dianne Feinstein said Sunday. Her remarks came as she and Sen. Harry Reid, D-Nev., hosted the annual Tahoe summit, begun by President Clinton in 1997.
