The Lake George Asian Clam Rapid Response Task Force

The threat to Lake George and the Adirondack Park from the Asian clam (Corbicula fluminea) infestation was quickly grasped by Lake George and Adirondack Park civic and regulatory communities. This group formalized into the ad hoc Lake George Asian Clam Rapid Response Task Force (LGACRRTF) and has organized a containment and eradication plan for the Asian clam planned for the 2011 season.

Survey Work Has Begun!

Divers began surveying the Asian Clam site located in Boon Bay on Monday.  Survey work will continue for the next few weeks and will be followed by installation of benthic barriers to smother the clams.
