Lake George Association
About
The Lake George Association, founded in 1885, is the oldest lake conservation organization in the country, headquartered at 2392 State Route 9N in Lake George. Its work centers on reducing wastewater and stormwater pollution, cutting road salt, preventing invasive species and monitoring water quality across the 32-mile lake.
The association employs the Lake George Waterkeeper and a team of field scientists, and partners with IBM and Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute on the Jefferson Project, a sensor network that models the lake in real time. A floating classroom, school programs and community science projects bring the research to the public.
