National Landslide Hazards Program (NLHP)

The National Landslide Hazards Program (NLHP) is a U.S. initiative that studies and monitors landslides to reduce their impact on communities and infrastructure. It involves research, data collection, and providing information about landslide risks, influencing land-use planning and safety measures. By understanding where and why landslides happen, the NLHP helps governments, engineers, and the public to prepare for and mitigate potential damage, promoting safer development in vulnerable areas.
