Did you know that LLA’s Adopt-A-Lake volunteers test every month of the year? That’s right, this includes snowy, freezing, and rainy days too! 💧❄️
These volunteers are top notch and dedicated to ensuring that the testing is completed regardless of weather conditions. Each month, our volunteers capture a sample using our specific testing process, then bring the sample to the LLA office. The samples are soon after transported to the Gwinnett County Water Resources lab to be evaluated.
The test results are then stored in a database and produce a chart LLA has dubbed the “Lake Lanier Index.” The index does not indicate water safety, only the level of algae in the lake and important data such as rainfall and temperature. These results are shared with interested parties to help understand the conditions of the water, trends and assist in decisions related to lake cleanliness.
At the end of 2024, LLA and our dedicated volunteers helped complete over 2,900 samples and tests since our partnership with Gwinnett County Water Resources Laboratory started in 2013!
To view the monthly Lake Lanier Index, please visit lakelanier.org/adopt-a-lake/ ⬅
Help us say THANK YOU to our awesome water testing volunteers in the comments - it is because of them, we are able to pursue a Clean & Safe Lake Lanier for everyone!
