1 Department of Conservation Geologic Sequestration of CO 2 in California

2 Department of Conservation California Geological Survey (CGS) Division of Oil, Gas, and Geothermal Resources (DOGGR) Office of Technology Services (OTS)

3 California Geological Survey CGS develops and disseminates technical information and advice on California’s geology, geologic hazards, and mineral resources.

4 California Geology

5 Important Faults in California

6 Earthquake Shaking Studies Combine earthquake data with basic geologic data to model areas likely to experience strong ground shaking.

7 Division of Oil, Gas, and Geothermal Resources DOGGR provides for the prudent development of hydrocarbon and geothermal resources through the application of sound engineering and regulatory practices.

8 Office of Technology Services OTS provides technical support, system administration, application development, and advanced mapping applications to all DOC divisions.

9 DOC’s role in the Partnership The CGS, in cooperation with DOGGR, will make a preliminary evaluation of the potential for geologic sequestration of CO 2 in California. The OTS will act as a clearinghouse for digital reports and data for the Partnership.
