To those mentioned and to the scores of others who participated in the section or evaluation work-shops, made data available, suggested sources, or who helped in other ways, I express the Council's gratitude and appreciation.
The State of California Office of Planning and Research was instrumental in the initial gathering of data and the preliminary mapping. The California Energy Resources Commission supported the efforts to evaluate areas, computerize the data and complete the mapping.
Over the years the Council's officers and directors have been unanimously supportive of the inven-tory program and have opened many doors to facilitate
the program. Special mention should be made of the chairman, Dr. Giles W. Mead, for his unflagging and generous support of the program.
