The California Department of Conservation received a $1,296,659.32 Cooperative Agreement award from the U.S. Geological Survey's National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program (CFDA 15.810) to conduct geologic mapping and digital compilation activities across the state of California. The two-year project, running from July 1, 2024 to June 30, 2026, will result in the production of three new 1:24,000-scale geologic maps, two 1:100,000-scale map compilations, two GEMS Level 3 geologic map...
This $140,335 Project Grant award from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Cooperative Landslide Hazard Mapping and Assessment Program (CFDA 15.821) supports two key activities in Oregon: Landslide inventory mapping using LiDAR data in the northern portion of Clackamas County. This region has experienced historic landslides and debris flows, and continues to undergo development along a major highway corridor. The detailed mapping will benefit local communities by identifying areas at risk....
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) awarded a $598,500 project grant under the USGS Cooperative Landslide Hazard Mapping and Assessment Program (CFDA 15.821) to the Washington State Department of Natural Resources. The 2-year grant, with a period of performance from September 30, 2024 to September 29, 2026, will fund the creation of a detailed landslide inventory for a 250 square mile area in western Clark County, Washington. Key deliverables include a final report and a geodatabase containing...

The California Department of Conservation (DOC) was awarded a $366,310.54 Project Grant from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Cooperative Landslide Hazard Mapping and Assessment Program (CFDA 15.821) to develop five landslide hazard awareness publications. The publications will include fact sheets on landslide processes, hazards in California, post-fire flood and debris flow risks, forest management practices to reduce landslides, and a homeowner's guide. Three of the fact sheets will be new, while two will be substantial updates to existing DOC resources. The publications will be developed with input from public and stakeholder partners to enhance their usability and will be made available digitally and in print through the DOC's outreach efforts. This award has a project period from July 1, 2025 to June 30, 2026 and aims to increase public and stakeholder awareness of landslide hazards in California.
