Description

Carlyn E. Orians & Patricia A. Bolton. This report was prepared as part of the Workshop on Issues & Options for Earthquake Loss Reduction in Seattle, Sept. 10, 1992, convened by the City of Seattle & Battelle. It provides examples of earthquake hazards mitigation programs that have been implemented by local jurisdictions in California, Utah, & Washington. The examples demonstrate ways that communities actively work to reduce potential damage from earthquakes. This is not a comprehensive list of all efforts in the 3 states, but rather an attempt to provide an array of the local earthquake hazard. Chapters: Introduction; Hazardous Buildings; Land Use; Nonstructural Hazards; Rebuilding; New Government Entities; & Appendix: List of Programs by State.
