Geologic-hazard publications report on areas that may be subject to the effects of earthquakes, landslides, debris flows, rock falls, poor soil conditions, radon, or floods.

This list of primarily UGS publications is not comprehensive for each region. Additional geologic-hazard publications are available at Geologic Hazard Maps, Site-Specific Studies, Paleoseismology of Utah, and the Natural Resources Library.
