Lake Lila in the William Whitney Wilderness............................................................ 45 iii INTRODUCTION The Forest Preserve lands within the Adirondack Park are protected by Article 14 of the New York State Constitution. The Adirondack Park State Land Master Plan (APSLMP) provides the vision of how natural resource protection and human use should be balanced: “If there is a unifying theme to the master plan, it is that the protection and preservation of the natural resources of the state lands within the Park must be paramount. Human use and enjoyment of those lands should be permitted and encouraged, so long as the resources in their physical and biological context as well as their social or psychological aspects are not degraded” (Adirondack Park Agency and NYSDEC 2001, p.1). Concerns have been raised about the current and future ecological integrity of Adirondack Park water bodies (Adirondack Park Agency and NYSDEC 2001; Adirondack Council 2010). Changes to freshwater ecosystems originate from many anthropogenic and natural causes. Some anthropogenic changes include: (1) terrestrial vegetation alteration and degradation in the riparian zone (e.g., soil loss, sedimentation, eutrophication); (2) aquatic vegetation alteration and degradation (e.g., aquatic species habitat loss, changes in biodiversity); (3) introduction of nuisance non-native plant and animal species (e.g., Eurasian watermilfoil, asian carp); (4) introduction of pollutants (e.g., pathogens, organic and inorganic compounds); and (5) other on site and external threats (e.g., acid rain, global climate change). The threats addressed in this report, including several of those mentioned above, are possible direct or indirect impacts due to recreational use, recreational facilities, and shoreline development for recreation and tourism uses. In view of these threats to state and regional freshwater resources, the APSLMP proposed a research study to collect information about the quality of Adirondack Park water

    Student Conservation Association Natural Resource Stewards Midterm Report Student Conservation Association Natural Resource Steward Midterm Report Program Dates: 5/24-11/5 Program Coordinator: Deanna Oliveri Email: [email protected] Student Conservation Association Natural Resource Stewards Midterm Report Summary The Natural Resource Steward Program is a collaboration between the Student Conservation Association and the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation. The program is funded by the Environmental Protection Fund, through a contract administered by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation. The program places Stewards across various NYSDEC properties in the Adirondacks, Catskills, and parts of Central and Western New York. The Stewards play an important role at these sites, with duties ranging from environmental education, site maintenance and restoration, trail work, invasive species monitoring, wildlife monitoring, and recording visitation. About SCA The mission of SCA is to build the next generation of conservation leaders and inspire lifelong stewardship of our environment and communities by engaging young people in hands-on service to the land. SCA was founded in 1957 by Elizabeth Putnam. While at Vassar College, she developed her senior thesis around the concept that a commonsense solution to the abuse and under-maintenance of America’s treasured public lands would be putting to good use the energy, talent, and hard work of a force of youthful volunteers. In the intervening 63 years, SCA has deployed a force of more than 75,000 members, completing 26 million hours of conservation service in 550 parks, forests, wildlife refuges and urban green spaces at the national, regional, state and municipal level in all 50 states.
