Note générale :	In december 1967 the gasbuggy subsurface nuclear blast was detonated about 24 mi southeast of Navajo dam, a 400-ft-high Bureau of Reclamation rolled-earth structure in New Mexico. The blast generated measurable seismic vibrations at the dam. In accordance with a Bureau of Reclamation request, the coast and geodetic survey investigated the response of the dam to these vibration by recording horizontal and vertical velocities for 3 points on the structure. Measured data obtained for the crest and point on the downstream slope are compared to computed data for the same locations.
