Resilience Policies 2.0 Explores How Seismic Safety Trends Can Save Lives

01 Sep 2021
Ashley Hefner

“Resilience Policy Options” Topic of Resilience Advantage Webinar

California State Treasurer, FEMA Official, Structural Engineer and Earthquake Retrofit Expert To Discuss Resilience Policies 2.0 Needed To Protect California from Natural Disasters

 

Policies needed before major earthquakes strike California will be discussed by State Treasurer Fiona Ma, a FEMA official, a structural engineer, and a resilience expert during the Resilience Advantage webinar on Sept. 15. The event will be sponsored by Optimum Seismic, Inc.

Seismic Policy 2.0 — policies needed before disasters strike – will be discussed along with current trends and policy actions government, the financial and insurance industries, and others can take to make our built environment and economy more resilient.

A monster 8.2 earthquake in Alaska, a massively destructive wildfire season expected to be made worse by record droughts and the tragic collapse of a 12-story condominium in Florida all point to the need for greater resilience.
