TS7. Federal Efforts to Embed Seismic Policy Into Broader Initiatives
MODERATOR: Laurie Johnson, Laurie Johnson Consulting;
DESCRIPTION: Forty years on from the passage of NEHRP, many aspects of federal involvement in earthquake hazards reduction are now codified in law and institutionalized within agencies. This session will focus on a range of new frontiers in federal efforts where earthquake hazards reduction is being embedded within broader policy initiatives.
NEHRP Beyond 40: Opportunities for the next generation of the National Earthquake Hazard Reduction Program (ID Theme13)TS8. Sustaining State-level Seismic Policy-Focused Efforts in the Face of Competing Demands
MODERATOR: Jim Wilkinson, Central U.S. Earthquake Consortium;
DESCRIPTION: This session will look at the role of state seismic safety commissions and other major long-term, post-earthquake programs that have endured in the face of changing political administrations, variable budgets, and competing policy demands.
The California Hospital Seismic Retrofit Program: 12 Years to the Finishing Line (ID Theme16)TS9. Locally-Led Seismic Policy Agenda Setting
MODERATOR: Chris Poland, Chris D. Poland Consulting Engineer;
DESCRIPTION: This session will look at the innovations in locally-led seismic policy both with earthquake policy as the lead issue and with earthquake policy piggy-backing on other broader policy initiatives. This would emphasize what kinds of stakeholder support is needed and the role that earthquake science and engineering studies played in helping to facilitate the policy development, adoption and implementation.
