| When Congress established the United States Geological Survey (USGS) it gave the Director responsibility for "classification of the public lands and examination of the geological structure, mineral resources, and products of the national domain." The Arizona Legislature established the Arizona Geological Survey (AZGS) to investigate and describe the geological character of Arizona and inform the public. Over the years the USGS and the AZGS have released thousands of geologic maps and reports. In order to better serve the public the USGS and AZGS entered into a formal agreement to establish the Earth Science Information Center (ESIC) to serve as a distribution point for publications of both agencies. The ESIC is collocated at the AZGS. |
