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.
