Current Program Projects
The UGS Geologic Hazard Program is focused on reducing Utah’s life safety, property, and economic risk by responding to, investigating, and providing unbiased scientific information about geologic hazards. Program engineering and geologic hazard geologists work on a variety of investigation, mapping, and applied research projects, along with public outreach activities, to raise awareness, educate, and inform others to help reduce Utah’s risk from geologic hazards.
