These studies involved lake water quality data collection and analysis often to develop comprehensive lake management plans. Some of these projects include Fawn Lake (Pike County, PA), Westcolang Lake (Pike County, PA), Tinkwig Lake (Pike County, PA), Lake Ariel (Wayne County, PA) and Amwell Lakes (Hunterdon County, NJ).

While employed elsewhere, Andrew Link took part in water quality monitoring, fishery surveys and relocations, macrophyte assessments, treatments for problematic flora, lake shoreline restoration, algae and aquatic insect identification and enumeration, as well as preparation of lake survey reports. A partial list of the projects that Mr. Link participated in from the private sector while employed at Allied Biological, Inc. include the following:  Big Bass Lakes (Lackawanna County, PA), Highland Lakes (Sussex County, NJ), Mountain Lakes (Morris County, NJ), Green Pond (Morris County, NJ), Upper Greenwood Lake (Passaic County, NJ), and Fayson Lakes (Morris County, NJ),
