Community Discussion

What others are saying:

The Blackhawk Homeowners Association and the Blackhawk GHAD have worked together for over 27 years. For 15 years as the manager of this community, it has been my pleasure to interact with the GHAD as they provide ongoing geologic hazard monitoring and landslide response.

Prevention is the best cure, The GHAD is monitoring water levels, and hillsides throughout the year – which helps lower the risk of landslides in our neighborhoods.

Robert Desautels

Resident of Blackhawk

For many years now the Blackhawk Country Club has worked collaboratively and successfully with the GHAD. Having an agency to provide for geologic hazards has been an invaluable asset for our club and our community.
