Citizens Statewide Lake Assessment Program (CSLAP)

The Citizens Statewide Lake Assessment Program (CSLAP) is a volunteer lake monitoring and education program that is managed by DEC and New York State Federation of Lake Associations (NYSFOLA).

The program has delivered high quality data to many DEC programs for over 25 years. The program is an excellent example of a successful volunteer monitoring program.

The BLCOA has supported water sampling at the lake as part of the NYS CSLAP since the early 1980’s.

• volunteers are trained in approved sampling methods
• certified labs are used to analyze the water samples
• lake data are interpreted by professionals
