The National Atmospheric Deposition Program (NADP) was initiated in 1977 under the
leadership of the State Agricultural Experiment Stations (SAES) to address the problem of atmospheric deposition and its effects on agricultural crops, forests, rangelands, surface waters and other natural and cultural resources. In 1978, the first sites of the NADP's precipitation chemistry network were established to provide information about geographical patterns and temporal trends in the deposition of acidic chemicals and nutrients. Initially organized as Regional Project NC-141 by the North Central Region of the SAES, the NADP was endorsed by all four regions in 1982, at which time it became Interregional Project IR-7. A decade later, the SAES reclassified IR-7 as a National Research Support Project, NRSP-3.
