(9) Area:	Aleutians
(10) Summit Elevation:	2625 ft (800 m)
(11) Volcanic Activity Summary:	Due to a marked decline is seismicity and no evidence of explosive activity detected in satellite, seismic or infrasound data since July 12, AVO is decreasing the Aviation Color Code to YELLOW and the Alert Level to ADVISORY. When occurring, small eruptions producing minor ash deposits within the vicinity of the active north crater of Mount Cerberus and ash clouds under 10,000 ft above sea level are typical of activity at Semisopochnoi.
