Lake Assessment (ALAP)

Now entering its 14th year, ALAP, the Adirondack Lake Assessment Program, is the largest, most professional, volunteer-driven water quality monitoring program in the Adirondack Park. ALAP is a partnership between PROTECT, the Adirondack Watershed Institute at Paul Smith’s College (AWI), and project sponsors and lake monitors. ALAP was established to help develop a comprehensive and up-to-date database of water quality conditions in the Park.
