Improvements have been announced that will upgrade the quality of water at America's most beautiful lake. The Town of Lake George will receive nearly $350,000 to repair and upgrade wastewater collection efforts which will help keep the waters of Lake George clean.

The allocated funds will go towards updating sewer lines and other infrastructure to prevent wastewater from leaking into the environment and to help prevent closures of Million Dollar Beach.

As part of a $2.5 billion clean water initiative, steps are being taken to protect New York's water infrastructure. Governor Cuomo had this to say about the program.
