Bureau of Economic Geology has long been a leader in oil and gas resource
studies. We are applying these proven research tools to the development
of new hydrologic and geomorphic studies that provide a framework
for preserving the environment and remediating past damages. The research
combines four critical areas-energy, environment, education, and economics-to
accomplish the goal of educating the public and providing technical
expertise to the private sector to produce energy while protecting
the environment through economically sound approaches. |
