<span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#63656A">The Kentucky Geological Survey traces its roots back to 1838, when the Kentucky legislature appropriated funds for the first government sponsored geological reconnaissance of the
commonwealth. A formal geological survey was subsequently established in 1854. Since 1838, only 13 state geologists have overseen the organization. KGS became a non-teaching unit of the University of Kentucky in 1948 by an act of the Kentucky legislature,
with a mandate to conduct a continuing study of the geology of Kentucky, and currently operates as a research center under the university's Vice President for Research. KGS has grown to become one of the country's top state geological surveys.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#63656A">KGS has a state funded recurring budget of approximately $4M per year that is currently supplemented by more than $2M per year in external research funds. It comprises more than
50 research and support staff in three locations: a main office on the UK campus in central Lexington, the Earth Analysis Research Library on the outskirts of Lexington, and a western Kentucky office in Henderson.
