The Citizens Statewide Lake Assessment Program (CSLAP) is a volunteer lake monitoring
program conducted by the NYS Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC) and the NYS
Federation of Lake Associations (FOLA). In this program, lay volunteers trained
by the NYSDEC and FOLA collect water samples, observations, and perception data every other week
in a fifteen-week interval between May and October. Water samples are analyzed by certified
laboratories. Analytical results are interpreted by the NYSDEC and FOLA, and utilized for a variety of
purposes by the State of New York, local governments, researchers, and, most importantly, participating
lake associations. This report summarizes the 2003 sampling results for Summit Lake.
