Yes, the United States has several dormant volcanoes, which are volcanoes that have not erupted in a long time but could potentially erupt again. Notable examples include Mount Rainier in Washington and Mount St. Helens, which last erupted in 1980 but is considered dormant. These volcanoes are closely monitored by the United States Geological Survey (USGS) for signs of volcanic activity.
David A. Johnston, the vulcanologist, was killed when he was manning an observation point on Mount St. Helens when it erupted in 1980. He was swept away by the blast created by the collapse of the mountain's north flank.
The worst volcanic eruption in U.S. history was the eruption of Mount St. Helens that occurred on May 18, 1980. It killed 57 people and caused more than $1 billion in damage.

Mount St. Helens is a volcanic peak in southwest Washington state, in the Cascade range. In 1980, after 123 years of relative dormancy, it became unstable again.On May 18, 1980, it erupted violently, blasting tons of rock and ash into the air. The south face of the mountain completely collapsed. The summit, which had been building up as the latest in a series of volcanic domes, was completely destroyed. The eruption killed 57 people and did nearly a billion dollars worth of damage to forests and inhabited areas (1980 US dollars). Ash covered thousands of square miles near the area, to various depths.
