Smith Mountain Lake Water Quality Alliance
SMLA, in partnership with the Smith Mountain Lake Regional Chamber of Commerce, Tri-County Lakes Administration Commission, and Ferrum College have formed the Smith Mountain Lake Water Quality Alliance (SMLWQA) to protect the water of Smith Mountain Lake. The alliance also includes residents, professionals, and county and state agencies. The current SMLA HAB Working Group is excited to evolve into a community-supported collaboration.
The goal of the Alliance is to educate and advise residents and visitors on:
- The history of Harmful Algal Blooms, or HABs, on Smith Mountain Lake
- The steps being taken to better understand and characterize our watershed,
- The prospects for future HABs
- The best practices for keeping Smith Mountain Lake clean and safe
