The ALCC has become an important component in the lighthouse preservation movement and was chartered to:
• Develop a consensus-based and constituent-based position on issues of very broad and far reaching significance to the lighthouse community.
• To share our collective and individual research, knowledge and education on critical lighthouse preservation and education issues with the United States Coast Guard and other federal, state and local government officials as well as other lighthouse organizations.
• To serve as a central communication/coordination point keeping ALCC’s constituent member organizations informed of and educated about critical issues.
and . . .
• To recognize outstanding leadership in the preservation of lighthouses and interpretation of their history through presentation of the F. Ross Holland Award. The Holland Award stands as the top national lighthouse honor for individuals and organizations.
