Thus, the Aviation Color Code has been reduced to Green and the Volcano Alert Level had been reduced to Normal. Occasional small earthquakes continue, but at a greatly reduced rate and magnitude relative to the peak of unrest in March 2012. Steam and sulfur gas emissions continue to be observed from sites near the summit during periods of favorable meteorological conditions, but are not unusual at Iliamna. http://www.avo.alaska.edu/volcanoes/volcinfo.php?volcname=Iliamna John Power Scientist-in-Charge, USGS jpower@usgs.gov (907) 786-7497 Jeff Freymueller, Coordinating Scientist, UAFGI jeff.freymueller@gi.alaska.edu (907) 378-7556 Volcano Alert Level=NORMAL Aviation Color Code=GREEN Iliamna volcano Alaska Cook Inlet-South Central 60.0319 -153.0918 CAVW=1103-02-
