  <dc:description>&lt;p&gt;The State Geological Surveys of Illinois, Indiana,&amp;nbsp;Michigan, and Ohio joined with the U.S. Geological&amp;nbsp;Survey (USGS, under the Earth Surface Dynamics&amp;nbsp;Program) to form the Central Great Lakes Geologic&amp;nbsp;Mapping Coalition. These four States have a similar&amp;nbsp;geologic heritage and need to address common societal&amp;nbsp;issues about land and water resources, the environment,&amp;nbsp;and geologic hazards. By pooling their expertise and&amp;nbsp;resources, the five Geological Surveys can address these&amp;nbsp;issues more effectively than could any one survey.&lt;/p&gt;</dc:description>
