The responsibilities of the various state surveys differ from state to state, depending upon the enabling legislation and the traditions under which the survey evolved. Almost all function as a basic information source for their state governments executive, legislative, and judicial branches. Some have regulatory responsibilities for water, oil and gas, land reclamation, etc. The first state geological survey was established in 1823 in North Carolina. By 1840, there were at least 15 state surveys, most of which were charged with the discovery of mineral, energy, land, and water resources in their state or territory. The State Geologists began formal meetings with the U.S. Geological Survey 1879, the year that organization was established. Since 1908, the Association has met regularly to discuss issues of common interest and to initiate united actions when warranted. ref name aasg Association of American State Geologists. http www.stategeologists.org AASG Retrieved ... of the Association of American State Geologists AASG to recognize individuals who have made significant ...

It helps the government in proposing policies and strategies aimed at reducing India s dependency on oil, in order both to save money and to reduce the environmental impact of oil use. Mandate India s demand for petroleum products is increasing at a rate of approximately 3 4 per annum. Some of this usage, the PCRA argues, is avoidable it sponsored a project in Delhi which demonstrated that fuel worth Rs. 994 cr per annum is being burnt at traffic signals due to idling of vehicles at red lights. Energy efficiency measures to reduce by 2 India s use of petroleum products, worth Rs. 4 Lakh Crores per annum, could save the country Rs. 8,000 Crores worth of imports. The PCRA is mandated to promote popular awareness of the importance of energy conservation. It cites an international acceptance that energy efficiency measures, like turning off car engines at traffic signals and driving at speeds of 45 50 km h, could help most countries to reduce their use of petroleum products by 20 . The PCRA promotes a nationwide mass media awareness campaign titled Save Fuel Yaani Save Money , broadcast on television, radio, and in newspapers. The campaign mascot, Yaani, is a piggy bank, representing saving. The PCRA took the campaign to IITF 09, an international trade show, where the PCRA stall featured interactive games and quizzes to promote energy efficiency.
