Landslide maps of Utah Plates (M-246dm)
By: A. H. Elliot and K. M. Harty Significant economic losses are associated with landslides, and Utah has numerous landslides and landslide-prone geologic units. Exposure to landslide hazards increases as development expands onto hillsides and other landslide-prone areas. To improve...

Guidelines for evaluating landslide hazards in Utah (C-92)
By: M. D. Hylland, editor The following guidelines were developed by the Utah Geological Survey (UGS) to assist geologists and geotechnical engineers in performing landslide-hazard studies and to help technical reviewers critically evaluate the conclusions and recommendations in hazard-evaluation reports....
