  • 2017 New York Loon Census Results
    ADIRONDACK CENTER FOR LOON CONSERVATION 2017 NEW YORK LOON CENSUS RESULTS On July 15, 2017, more than 450 observers participated in the 17th Annual New York Loon Census, observing a total of 633 loons on 155 (81%) of the 192 New York Loon Census lakes, including 544 (86%) adult, 81 (13%) chick, and 8 (1%) immature loons. “This is the first year since we have been on Garnet Lake (30+ years) that we have had 2 successful nesting and hatchings! Each family has 1 surviving chick. We are able to count 4 visiting loons enjoying the lake today.” ~Garnet Lake “They seemed very relaxed - hooting to the kids. Those are some big healthy looking chicks! Also there must have been a lot of fish - they just skimmed their bills in the water to come up with a fish. I don't think I've ever seen that before.” ~Jones Pond Adirondack Center for Loon Conservation 15 Broadway, Saranac Lake, NY 12983 Mailing: P.O. Box 195, Ray Brook, NY 12977 518-354-8636 [email protected] www.adkloon.org www.facebook.com/adkloon Of the 256 Census reports received in 2017, 253 were included in the analysis, as three reports had observations that were conducted outside the Census hour or were duplicated efforts on a lake. “Population in our area is increasing. Observed a group of 7 adults earlier in spring. As we were observing the second pair this morning, they both began the tremolo call. A minute later a bald eagle flew directly over with an eye on the loons.” ~St.

  • OPERATION of GREAT SACANDAGA LAKE – Q & A
    OPERATION of GREAT SACANDAGA LAKE – Q & A Q. What rules govern how the Great Sacandaga Lake is operated? Specifically how much water is let out, and when? A. An agreement between interested parties and stakeholder organizations was reached in 2000 and became part of a Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) license for the Great Sacandaga Lake in 2002. This agreement is known as the “Offer of Settlement” and governs how much water is to be released each day for all combinations of reservoir elevation and downstream flows. Q. What prompted the need for this agreement? A. A relicensing of the hydroelectric power plant at the Conklingville Dam with FERC required the development of an operating plan with appropriate long-term environmental protection measures that would meet diverse objectives for maintaining a balance of interests in the Upper Hudson River Basin. Q. What groups signed on to the agreement? A. A total of 29 organizations approved the agreement. In addition to the Hudson River – Black River Regulating District, they were: Great Sacandaga Lake Association, Fulton County Board of Supervisors, Saratoga County Board of Supervisors, Town of Hadley, Glens Falls Feeder Alliance, Adirondack Boardsailing Club, Adirondack Council, Great Sacandaga Fisheries Association, Erie Boulevard Hydropower, Niagara Mohawk Power Corporation, Adirondack Mountain Club, Glens Falls Chapter of Adirondack Mountain Club, Great Sacandaga Lake Marinas, Adirondack Park Agency, Adirondack River Outfitters, American Rivers, Hudson River Rafting Company, International Paper, American Whitewater, NYS Department of Environmental Conservation, NYS Conservation Council, National Park Service, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Association for the Protection of the Adirondacks, Sacandaga Outdoor Center, Wild Waters Outdoor Center, and New York Council of Trout Unlimited.

  • 90Th Anniversary of the Creation of the Great Sacandaga Lake Lauren Roberts, Saratoga County Historian
    90th Anniversary of the Creation of the Great Sacandaga Lake Lauren Roberts, Saratoga County Historian Ninety years ago today life in the Sacandaga Valley changed forever. March 27, 1930 marked the completion of the Conklingville Dam and the closing of its three large Dow valves, which hold back the 37 billion cubic feet of water we now know as the Great Sacandaga Lake. While the day was marked with a small gathering, there was no elaborate ceremony. As all upstate New Yorkers know too well, the weather in March can be problematic for outdoor gatherings. The pomp and circumstance of long speeches from honorary guests eventually occurred in September of that year, when the weather was much more pleasant. The massive project to build the Sacandaga Reservoir actually began three years prior to this date. Despite local opposition, New York State created the Hudson River Regulating District, giving the new agency the authority to create reservoirs within the Upper Hudson River Watershed in order to impound water, preventing flooding. In addition, water could be released in times of drought. The Sacandaga Reservoir Project would create the largest reservoir in New York State. Ten communities in the valley were either partially or completely flooded. All residents living below “the taking line” needed to move to higher ground. All of the buildings and structures had to be removed, ten new bridges built, miles of new highway constructed. Two additional dams besides Conklingville had to be completed. This massive undertaking cost 12 million dollars, 95% of which was paid for by private companies along the Hudson who would benefit from a guaranteed water supply.
