Objectives

The conference is designed to provide a stimulating forum for geoscientists, engineers, planners, economists, program managers, and other decision makers concerned with landslide hazards and their impact on North American society.

There are four days of technical sessions (Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday) and one day (Wednesday) of technical excursions, included in the registration fee.

The conference addresses the entire range of technical and social-economic policy issues surrounding assessment and management of all types of slope instability.

Conference Proceedings

The Geo-Institute of ASCE will publish the Conference proceedings. ASCE standards for publications will be followed - a minimum of two independent reviews of each submission. Two Geotechnical Special Publications - a book of about 800 pages and a CD-ROM - will together contain all the presentations made at the Conference.
