| Abstract | This is a summary report of preliminary recommendations for the Oregon State University: Hatfield Marine Science Center, located in Newport, Lincoln County, Oregon as this institution prepares to embark on the development of an earthquake and tsunami pre-disaster mitigation plan. This report describes our preliminary recommendations, lessons from the past, benefits of a plan, discusses FEMA’s four planning phases and includes attached appendix information. We recommend that Hatfield develop plans in accordance with Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA)’s Disaster Resistant Universities (DRU) and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)’s TsunamiReady communities. Furthermore, this summary report may also be used in conjunction with the recent evaluations for OSU-Hatfield in the report completed by Howard Pierpont titled “Oregon State University: Hatfield Marine Science Center, Newport, Oregon”, herein referred to as the Pierpont report. A copy of this report, which includes an OSU-Hatfield site location map, is included in Appendix A. |
