Volcano Hazards Assessments
Reports and Maps

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) is responsible for assessing volcano hazards, monitoring the activity of U.S. volcanoes, and issuing warnings of impending eruptions. To help prevent loss of life and property from the next eruption in the Cascades, scientists at the USGS Cascades Volcano Observatory (CVO) in Vancouver, Washington, are working to determine the type and extent of hazards posed by the Cascade volcanoes. -- Excerpt from: Preparing for the Next Eruption in the Cascades, 1994
