Pennsylvania Lake Management Society Conference

The 15^th annual Pennsylvania Lake Management Society (PALMS) conference, “Integrated Approaches to Lake Management”, will be held on October 21- 22 in State College, PA. The conference promises to be just as informative as in past years, with several improvements based on participant feedback. Topics include algae and aquatic plant management, fishery management, GIS, on-site wastewater disposal problems, dam removal, alum application, and pesticide and herbicide application. A photo contest and lake management awards are included and credits for pesticide applicators and lake managers are available.
