Ausable Freshwater Center

Over the past 25 years, the Ausable River Association has grown. WIth a staff of nine full-time professionals, our mission now extends to the entire Adirondack Park. We'll always have a focus in the Ausable River watershed, it's our home, our laboratory for innovation and for monitoring the success of our science-based models. But our work is branching into neighboring watersheds. We're bringing our field-based science and stewardship to communities throughout the Park so that, working together, we can find solutions that restore streams, protect clean water and riparian habitats, engage people, and ensure the vitality of our communities. Vision Adirondack streams, lakes, rivers, and wetlands—and the biodiversity they support—are healthy and self-sustaining. Historic damage is repaired using the innovative science and stewardship programs of the Ausable Freshwater Center. Adirondack communities benefit from and value these freshwater systems and work in partnership with the Ausable Freshwater Center to keep them healthy. Mission Advancing science and stewardship of Adirondack waters.
