Geologic Hazard Abatement Districts (GHAD)

GHADs are public agencies formed by communities to provide a management structure and funding source to protect from landslides, erosion, liquefaction and other hazards.  In 1986, ENGEO helped create the first GHAD in Northern California and since that time has formed, engineered and managed the vast majority of GHAD properties throughout the state.
