Please join us as we take a hard look at our level of preparedness for a projected large NW earthquake that could happen in our lifetime. Oregon Public Broadcasting and the Oregon Field Guide spent a year-and-a-half probing into the state of Oregon’s preparedness, and found that when it came to bridges, schools, hospitals, building codes and energy infrastructure, Oregon lagged far behind many quake-prone regions of the country. This 55 minute documentary has important insights about our lack of preparedness in the Seattle region as well.
Special Guests: Patti Quirk, Emergency Management Program Director, Seattle Department of Transportation; Kit Loo, SDOT Director of Roadway Structures Division; and Ann Forrest, chair of the Emergency HUB Network
