520 "The United States will certainly be subject to damaging
earthquakes in the future. Some of these earthquakes will
occur in highly populated and vulnerable areas. Coping
with moderate earthquakes is not a reliable indicator of
preparedness for a major earthquake in a populated area.
The recent, disastrous, magnitude-9 earthquake that struck
northern Japan demonstrates the threat that earthquakes
pose. Moreover, the cascading nature of impacts-the
earthquake causing a tsunami, cutting electrical power
supplies, and stopping the pumps needed to cool nuclear
reactors-demonstrates the potential complexity of an
earthquake disaster. Such compound disasters can strike
any earthquake-prone populated area. National Earthquake
Resilience presents a roadmap for increasing our national
resilience to earthquakes. The National Earthquake Hazards
Reduction Program (NEHRP) is the multi-agency program
mandated by Congress to undertake activities to reduce the
effects of future earthquakes in the United States. The
National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)-the
lead NEHRP agency-commissioned the National Research
Council (NRC) to develop a roadmap for earthquake hazard
and risk reduction in the United States that would be
based on the goals and objectives for achieving national
earthquake resilience described in the 2008 NEHRP
Strategic Plan. National Earthquake Resilience does this
by assessing the activities and costs that would be
required for the nation to achieve earthquake resilience
in 20 years. National Earthquake Resilience interprets
resilience broadly to incorporate engineering/science
(physical), social/economic (behavioral), and
institutional (governing) dimensions. Resilience
encompasses both pre-disaster preparedness activities and
post-disaster response. In combination, these will enhance
the robustness of communities in all earthquake-vulnerable
regions of our nation so that they can function adequately
following damaging earthquakes. While National Earthquake
Resilience is written primarily for the NEHRP, it also
speaks to a broader audience of policy makers, earth
scientists, and emergency managers."--Publisher's
description.
