Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Little data is available on local earthquake mitigation planning programs. Of the few case studies on mitigation planning, almost all focus on California communities. To obtain a better and more complete understanding of the diversity of local earthquake mitigation planning efforts this study presents a description of programs operating in earthquake prone areas of the United States. The description focuses on community context, interorganizational relations, program operation and support activities, and community response to hazards.

Book excerpt: Earthquakes have caused massive death and destruction, and potentially damaging earthquakes are certain to occur in the future. Although earthquakes are uncontrollable, the losses they cause can be reduced by building structures that resist earthquake damage, matching land use to risk, developing emergency response plans, and other means. Since 1977, the federal government has had a research oriented program to reduce earthquake losses the National Earthquake Hazards Reduction Program (NEHRP). This program has made significant contributions toward improving our understanding of earthquakes and strategies to reduce their impact. Implementing action based on this understanding, however, has been quite difficult. This chapter provides an introduction to earthquakes: a sum mary of the earthquake hazard across the United States, a review of the types of losses earthquakes cause, a discussion of why earthquakes are a congressional concern, and an introduction to mitigation actions taken prior to earthquakes that can reduce losses when they occur. The federal policy response to date, NEHRP is then described and reviewed. Finally, specific policy options for improving federal efforts to reduce future earthquake losses are presented.
