Statement: The map was produced as a result of a Technical Co-operation agreement between the Government of the Republic of Keny and the United Kingdom of Great Britian and Northern Ireland (Overseas Development Administration). The work formed part of the Kenyan Governments 'Exploration for Geothermal Energy project and was carried out between 1985 and 1987 by the Geeothermal Section of the Kenyan Ministry of Energy and Regional Development and the British Geological Survey (Natural Environmental Research Council). e complilation includes data derived from the Kenyan \Power Company: postgraduate research programmes, notably Dr S.C. Scot of Plymouth Polytechnic and Dr C.M. Bliss of Lancaster University, both in the UK, UNDP and Japan International Co-operation Agency.

Since the original work was carried out and published no further updates or changes have been made.
