<br />Bldg. 50, Denver Federal Center <br />P.O. Box 25047 <br />Denver, CO 80225-0047 <br />Telephone: (303) 236-7991 <br /> <br />Walk-in service for the Bureau of Land Management <br />(BLM) is in Building 46 of the Denver Federal <br />Center. <br /> <br />The BLM also has district offices in Craig, Grand <br />Junction, Montrose, and Canon City. Some of these <br />offices have indexes and file prints of aerial photograpby <br />available for their districts. <br />The BLM office at the Denver Federal Center also <br />has indexes and file prints of some U.S. Forest Service <br />(USFS) photography. For more information on USFS <br />aerial photograpby contact either the BLM office in <br />Denver or the USFS Regional Office in Salt Lake City, <br />Utah, at (BOl) 524-5856, or check with individnal USFS <br />district forest rangers. <br />In most cases, photographs at these offices will only <br />be available for viewing. Copies can be ordered. <br /> <br />Existing hazard mapping <br />Geologic hazard maps have been prepared for many <br />areas of the state and some of these maps include land- <br />slides and debris flows. Most have been prepared at the <br />1:24,000 scale. Because a comprehensive list of maps <br />does not exist, county pl.nning offices should be con- <br />tacted to determine the availability of local maps. <br /> <br />Information Transfer <br />Once information users (Table 2) and their needs have <br />been identified, potential reduction techniques deter- <br />mined (Chapter 5), and usable and understandable infor- <br />mation prepared, the next goal is the transference of the <br />information to the users. <br />Methods for obtaining and communicating landslide in- <br />formation are listed in Thble 5 under the headings of <br />educational, advisory, and review services. These <br />methods should be used by any landslide information <br />collection, interpretation, and transferral program <br />designed for planners and decision-makers. Some of <br />these. services are provided through universities, state <br />agenCIes, map sales offices, geologic inquiries staffs, and <br />public inquiries offices, and in the course of ordinary <br />day-to-day contacts with the public by the producers of <br />landslide hazard information. In addition, many research <br />workers have provided such services on a limited and in- <br /> <br />28 <br /> <br />formal bas" Federal and state scientists involved in <br />urban area tudies frequentiy assist users in interpreta- <br />tion of info tion and government agencies in the <br />review of p posed programs and legislation. <br /> <br /> <br />mples of resources available for ob- <br />sferring landslide information. <br /> <br />EDUCATIONAL SERVICES <br /> <br />and their extension divisions; courses, lee- <br />ks, and display materials <br />ers and participants at lectures in regional <br />and co 'ty educational programs related to the <br />applicati n of hazard information <br />Seminars, nferences, workshops, short courses, <br />techno! uti1ization sessions, training gymposia, <br />and othe discussions with user groups <br />Oral b . , newsletters, seminars, map-type "inter- <br />pretive " ntories:' open-file reports, reports of <br />coopera agencies, and "official-use only" <br />material (released via news media) <br />Radio and levision programs that explain or report on <br />hazard- uction programs and products <br />Meetiogs th local, district, and state agencies and <br />their g ming bodies <br />Field trips potentially hazardous sites by state, local, <br />or fede agencies, and professional societies. <br /> <br />ADVISORY SERVICES <br /> <br />Annotated d indexed bibliographies of hazard informa- <br />tion and . ts of pertinent reference materials <br />Local, sta and federal policies. procedures. or- <br />dinance statutes, and regulations that cite or make <br />other us of hazards information <br />Hazards" rmation incorporated into local, state, and <br />federal dies and plans <br />Use~ guide relating to earth-hazards processes, map- <br />ping, an hazard-reduction techniques <br /> <br />REVIEW SERVICES <br /> <br />roposed programs for collecting and inter- <br />information. <br />, state, and federal policies, ad- <br />" e procedures, and legislative analyses that <br />ct effect on hazard information. <br />Review of tudies and plans based on hazard <br />informa on. <br /> <br />
