Washington Geological Survey’s Landslide Hazard Program

In 2015, the Washington Geological Survey received legislative funding to start a Landslide Hazards Program (LHP). The LHP has three primary functions: landslide inventory mapping, post-wildfire debris flow assessments, and emergency response. This presentation will include an overview of the LHP and our products and discuss how the program has evolved over the last 6 years.
