Adirondack Park Agency

The Adirondack Park Agency (APA) is a New York State organization responsible for preserving the forest preserve and overseeing development proposals on privately-owned lands within the park. The agency's mission is to safeguard both public and private resources in the park by exercising its powers and duties as provided by law. This mission is based on three statutes that the APA administers within the park: the Adirondack Park Agency Act, the New York State Freshwater Wetlands Act, and the New York State Wild, Scenic, and Recreational Rivers System Act.

These categories cover a wide range of products and supplies that can help the APA in its mission to protect and maintain the park's resources, infrastructure, and environment.
