The Adirondack Watershed Institute (AWI) is a component of Paul Smith's College. Paradox Lake participates in AWI’s water quality testing and monitoring program as well as their lake steward program.
The Adirondack Park Invasive Plant Program (APIPP) serves as the Adirondack Partnership for Regional Invasive Species Management (PRISM), one of eight PRISMs across New York. APIPP’s role is to serve as a clearinghouse of information, a coordinator of action, and a communicator of needs for invasive species issues affecting the Adirondack region. APIPP has proven to be an important resource for Paradox Lake. Please check out their site and some of their educational material on this sites Education page.
