When this fault line slips we could experience earthquakes and devastation as bad as Japan suffered in 2011\, and coastal communities could have as few as 20 minutes before a tsunami rushes ashore. Yes\, that’s WHEN it goes\, not IF. \;\n \;\nYet it’s not all doom and gloom. Scientists and engineers are working to prepare our communities and infrastructure to w ithstand such devastation. Yumei Wang\, geotechnical engineer\, Geohazar ds Team Leader from the Oregon Department of Geology and Mineral Industr ies (DOGAMI)\, will talk about what is in store for the Pacific Northwes t and how cities are preparing. We’ll also be joined by a disaster prepa redness expert from the Red Cross who will give practical ideas for how to prepare yourself and your family. \;\n \;\nEvent website \;\ n \;\n_________ \;\n*A note on the suggested cover at the door: S cience on Tap is mostly supported by money collected at the door.
