The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) awarded a $154,398 Project Grant under the USGS Cooperative Landslide Hazard Mapping and Assessment Program (CFDA 15.821) to the University of Arizona to map geologic hazards at First Mesa in northeastern Arizona. The 1-year project aims to: 1) create baseline geologic and topographic maps of landslide hazards, 2) provide education and outreach materials to tribal entities, and 3) present findings to tribal leaders and groups to develop mitigation strategies. The project will incorporate tribal input, generate data usable by tribal emergency managers and residents, and preserve the data in the Arizona Geological Survey's online repository.
