GEOLOGIC MAPPING OF NW 1/2 OF CHESTNUT HILL, DYERSBURG, NW 1/2 OF RUSSELLVILLE, WILDER, DRILLING IN LANE, TN 7.5' QUADRANGLES, COMPILATION OF 3 DERIVATIVE MAPS, AND CONVERSION OF 2 GEOLOGIC MAPS PROJECT PERIOD: 07/01/2022 - 06/30/2023GEOLOGY OF THE LEAPWOOD 7.5-MINUTE QUADRANGLE, MCNAIRY COUNTY, TENNESSEEAN EDMAP PROPOSAL BY WILLIAM T. JACKSON, JR.PLAIN LANGUAGE DESCRIPTIONTHE LEAPWOOD 7.5-MINUTE QUADRANGLE, IN WESTERN TENNESSEE, CONTAINS SEDIMENTARY ROCKS IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTANDING EASTERN NORTH AMERICA DURING THE CRETACEOUS PERIOD (~ 80 TO 65 MILLION YEARS AGO). CONDUCTING GEOLOGIC MAPPING AND HEAVY MINERAL ANALYSIS OF ROCKS WITHIN THE LEAPWOOD QUADRANGLE WILL PROVIDE VALUABLE INFORMATION ABOUT THE SPATIAL DISTRIBUTION OF SAND UNITS THAT CAN BENEFIT THE SAND AND GRAVEL INDUSTRY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY ASSESSMENTS IN WESTERN TENNESSEE. A COLLABORATIVE TEAM FROM THE UNIVERSITY OF MEMPHIS AND THE UNIVERSITY OF TENNESSEE AT MARTIN WILL CONDUCT THIS WORK. TO COMPLETE THIS WORK GEOLOGIC MAPPING AND GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SOFTWARE (GIS) WILL BE COUPLED WITH HEAVY MINERAL ANALYSIS. RESULTS FROM THIS WORK WILL BE MADE AVAILABLE TO THE PUBLIC THROUGH DISTRIBUTION OF A GEOLOGIC MAP, CROSS SECTION, AND WRITTEN REPORT BY THE U.S. GEOLOGIC SURVEY, THE TENNESSEE GEOLOGIC SURVEY, AND THE COON CREEK SCIENCE CENTER (LOCATED WITHIN THE LEAPWOOD QUADRANGLE).ACTIVITIES TO BE PERFORMEDDEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENT & CONSERVATION TENNESSE WILL CONDUCT BEDROCK GEOLOGIC MAPPING, AS WELL AS SURFICIAL MAPPING OF UNCONSOLIDATED QUATERNARY DEPOSITS THROUGHOUT THE LEAPWOOD QUADRANGLE IN WESTERN TENNESSEE. SUBSURFACE 3D PROJECTIONS OF STRATIGRAPHIC UNITS IN THE LEAPWOOD QUADRANGLE WILL BE PERFORMED FROM GEOLOGIC MAPPING DATA. HEAVY MINERAL ANALYSIS OF SAND UNITS THROUGHOUT THE QUADRANGLE WILL BE CONDUCTED ON SAMPLES COLLECTED DURING GEOLOGIC MAPPING.DELIVERABLES AND INTENDED OUTCOMESTHIS WORK WILL RESULT IN THE CONSTRUCTION OF A GEOLOGIC MAP, STRATIGRAPHIC COLUMN, CROSS SECTION, AND WRITTEN REPORT FOR THE LEAPWOOD QUADRANGLE IN WESTERN TENNESSEE. IN ADDITION, HEAVY MINERAL CHARACTERIZATION OF SAND UNITS FROM DETRITAL-ZIRCON GEOCHRONOLOGY AND X-RAY DIFFRACTION WILL BE DETERMINED.INTENDED BENEFICIARY(IES) AS WELL AS SUBRECIPIENT ACTIVITIESTHIS WORK IS INTENDED TO BENEFIT THE SAND AND GRAVEL INDUSTRY OF WESTERN TENNESSEE, AS WELL AS ENVIRONMENTAL AND GOVERNMENTAL HAZARDOUS WASTE MITIGATION PLANNING EFFORTS. THE PUBLIC WILL ALSO BENEFIT FROM THE PRODUCTION OF BASIC GEOLOGIC INFORMATION FOR THE LEAPWOOD QUADRANGLE THROUGH SCIENCE EDUCATIONAL OUTREACH EFFORTS, PLANNED THROUGH THE COON CREEK SCIENCE CENTER (LOCATED WITHIN THE QUADRANGLE). UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS AT THE UNIVERSITY OF TENNESSEE MARTIN WILL BENEFIT FROM TRAVEL SUPPORT FROM THIS GRANT, WHICH WILL ALLOW FOR TRAINING IN GEOLOGIC MAPPING TECHNIQUES.

The Indiana Geological and Water Survey (IGWS) will receive $1,096,272 through a cooperative agreement awarded by the U.S. Geological Survey under the National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program (CFDA 15.810) from July 26, 2022 to July 25, 2024. IGWS will produce several geologic mapping deliverables through seven projects. Projects 1, 2, and 4 will create new 1:100,000-scale geologic maps of Indiana quadrangles and GEMS-compliant geodatabases available through IU DataCore. Project 5 will update the National Geologic Map Database. Project 7 will publish a stratigraphic nomenclature revision. The agreement supports the USGS's goal of completing Indiana's 1:100,000-scale bedrock maps and furthering geologic knowledge through mapping and database activities.

STATEMAP - Supplemental Funding
This supplemental funding is available for geologic mapping projects that support the Phase Three initiative by undertaking geologic map compilation activities as referenced in this program announcement posting instructions. This is only available to the applicants that submitted under the G20AS0006 STATEMAP Program Announcement that closed back in November. This is to be a separate proposal as stated in the program announcement and should not be combined with the previous proposal when submitted. Please read program announcement details and instructions thoroughly.

The State Component of the National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program
The 102nd Congress recognized that the USGS and the State Geological Surveys needed a coordinated program to prioritize the geologic mapping requirements of the Nation, and to increase production of these geologic maps. The National Geologic Mapping Act (Public Law 102-285) was signed into law in 1992 and created the National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program (NCGMP). The Act has been re-authorized four times since then, most recently by the 116th Congress in 2019 (S. 47: John D. Dingell, Jr. Conservation, Management, and Recreation Act, sec. 5002).

The Educational Component of the National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program
The primary objective of the EDMAP component of the NCGMP is to train the next generation of geologic mappers. To do this NCGMP provides funds for graduate and selected undergraduate students in academic research projects that involve geologic mapping as a major component. Through these cooperative agreements NCGMP hopes to expand the research and educational capacity of academic programs that teach earth science students the techniques of geologic mapping and field data analysis. Another important goal is to increase the level of communication between the Nations geologic surveys (both State Geological Surveys and the USGS) and geologic mappers in the academic community. We hope that this improved communication will have two results: 1) that the academic mapping community will learn more about the societal needs that drive geologic mapping projects at the USGS and State Geologic Surveys, and 2) more geologic maps produced in academia will eventually be made available to the public.

STATEMAP - The State Component of the National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program
The primary objectives of the STATEMAP component of the NCGMP are to establish the geologic framework of areas determined to be vital to the economic, social, or scientific welfare of individual States. The State Geologist shall determine mapping priorities in consultation with a multi-representational State Mapping Advisory Committee. These priorities shall be based on: a) state requirements for geologic-map information in areas of multiple-issue need or areas of compelling single-issue need, and b) State requirements for geologic-map information in areas where mapping is required to solve critical earth-science problems.
