What is the Lewis and Clark Corps of Discovery Project?
A. This project installs and dedicates commemorative markers along the route followed by the Lewis and Clark expedition. Markers have been installed at Monticello, Harpers Ferry, etc. It’s an ongoing project. Q. How does NGS partner with USGS? A. In the classic sense we are incorporating USGS data into our database. We also put on workshops related to water resources in partnership with USGS. The USGS State Liaisons should be connecting with those in the NGS State Advisory program.
