USGS IN YOUR STATE

USGS Water Science Centers are located in each state.

Liason Committee

Communication and coordination between the U.S. Geological Survey and other scientific and water-management organizations are critical components of the NAWQA program. Each study-area investigation has a local liaison committee consisting of representatives from Federal, State, and local agencies, universities, and the private sector who have water-resources responsibilities. Liaison-committee activities include:

• exchanging information of water-quality issues of regional and local interest
• identifying sources of data and information
• assisting in the design and scope of project elements
• reviewing project planning documents and reports

A full list of the agencies and organizations represented on the Upper Mississippi River Basin Liaison Committee is available.
