    Publication No. 171 The Massachusetts Acid Rain Monitoring Project: Ten Years of Monitoring Massachusetts Lakes and Streams with Volunteers. by Paul J. Godfrey Mark D. Mattson Marie-Françoise Walk Peter A. Kerr O.Thomas Zajicek Armand Ruby III The Massachusetts Acid Rain Monitoring Project: Ten Years of Monitoring Massachusetts Lakes and Streams with Volunteers. by Paul J. Godfrey Mark D. Mattson Marie-Françoise Walk Peter A. Kerr O.Thomas Zajicek Armand Ruby III November 1996 Abstract Between 1983 and 1985, the Acid Rain Monitoring (ARM) Project used as many as 1000 citizen volunteers to collect and help analyze more than 40,000 samples from 2444 lakes and 1670 streams, respectively 87% and 69% of the named lakes and streams in the state, and monitored a representative 453 randomly selected and 119 special interest lakes and streams for eight successive years (1985-1993) with approximately 300 volunteers. This report details the organizational effort that permitted maintenance of this ten year effort, the quality control efforts needed to insure that resulting data met scientific standards for quality, and the findings of ten years of extensive monitoring. Results for the nearly comprehensive initial phases of the project show that 5.5% of lakes and streams in Massachusetts are acidified (pH < 5.0 and ANC < 0 µeq/l); 57.4% were sufficiently low in acid neutralizing capacity to be considered threatened by acid deposition (0<ANC<200 µeq/l); and 37.1% were not threatened (ANC > 200 µeq/l). Spring samples contained an average of 45% more H+ (pH 6.44 vs 6.60) and 32% less ANC (257 vs 376 µeq/l) than fall samples.
