NALMS COMMITTEES

The North American Lake Management Society (NALMS) standing committees are the front line working groups for the society. This is where new and old members alike can look for a way to help NALMS fulfill its mission of “Forging partnerships among citizens, scientists, and professionals to foster the management and protection of lakes and reservoirs for today and tomorrow.” Below is the list of current standing committees and the contact information for the Chairs of these committees. There is also a description of the committee’s goals.

Please contact the committee chair if you are interested in helping.
