About $5.5 million of the budget will go to state geological surveys and a few universities in 45 states, as part of the DOE-funded National Geothermal Data System project that AZGS manages.
AZGS is becoming more self-supporting in response to declining state funding and our increased competitiveness in winning applied science projects from a growing array of funding sources. The outside funds are allowing us to maintain the level of services as before the recession despite our taking a roughly effective 45% reduction in State funding, and merger of the Dept. of Mining and Mineral Resources, with no funding for that.
