The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration awarded a $750,000 cooperative agreement to the New England Interstate Water Pollution Control Commission through December 2027 under the Congressionally Identified Awards and Projects program (CFDA #11.469).

The award will support several elements of an environmental monitoring network in Lake Champlain, including improved understanding of contaminants of concern through targeted sampling and development of a future monitoring framework. It will also fund cyanotoxin testing of recreational water samples to enhance understanding of public health risks from cyanobacteria blooms. Real-time in-situ monitoring instrumentation will increase data resolution for environmental condition and trend analysis across lake regions. Products and services under this cooperative agreement will enhance the scientific understanding and management of environmental issues in Lake Champlain.
