Graham J. 2001. Geologic Resource Evaluation Scoping Summary: Petrified Forest National Park

A geologic resources inventory workshop was held for Petrified Forest NP (PEFO) on June 27th and 28th, 2001 to view and discuss the park’s geologic resources, to address the status of geologic mapping for compiling both paper and digital maps, and to assess resource management issues and needs. Cooperators from the NPS Geologic Resources Division (GRD), NPS Petrified Forest NP, Colorado State University, University of Montana and United States Geologic Survey (GS) were present for the workshop. This was part of a multi-park scoping session also involving Pipe Spring NM, Navajo NM, Sunset Crater NM, Wupatki NM, and Walnut Canyon NM.
