Information for the Public
This website contains valuable information about how Florida residents and visitors to the state can prepare for disasters and how citizens can become more involved in the community. For the latest information on road closures, visit the following:
Emergency Contact Information
The new emergency contact information system (ECI) implemented by the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles allows Florida motorists to voluntarily provide emergency contact information online using their Florida driver licenses or Florida identification cards. The information can then be accessed by law enforcement officers to notify designated contacts if a motorist is seriously injured or killed in a traffic crash. Personal Health Records - Agency for Health Care Administration (AHCA)
You can find information to help you compare hospitals, ambulatory surgery centers, health plans, nursing homes, and prescription drugs. The website also lists Florida health care facilities; information on health insurance; medical care resources for the uninsured; resources for seniors; and much more.Be Prepared

CALEMA - California Emergency Management Agency - Determine Your Risk
Earthquake Hazards
Earthquakes can occur everywhere in California which means all Californians live with an earthquake risk. In addition to the shaking caused by earthquakes, other things can occur such as landslides, surface fault ruptures and liquefaction--all of which may cause injury or property damage. Take note of where you live, read the information provided here, and contact your local city our county government for further details on how to be prepared where you live.
Earthquake Preparedness
More information and ideas on how to secure the contents of your home can be found at http://www.earthquakecountry.info/daretoprepare/.
Recommended actions for Earthquake Fault zones
If the property is not developed, a fault study may be required before the parcel can be subdivided or structures permitted. If a property is developed, you will not need a geologic study unless you plan to extensively add onto or remodel an existing structure. (more information at http://www.consrv.ca.gov/cgs/rghm/ap/index.htm).
Recommended actions for Liquefaction Seismic Hazard zones
http://geomaps.wr.usgs.gov/sfgeo/liquefaction/what_can.html also See Chapter 6 http://www.conservation.ca.gov/CGS/shzp/webdocs/sp117.pdf
Recommended actions for Earthquake-Induced Landslide zones
See Chapter 5 http://www.conservation.ca.gov/CGS/shzp/webdocs/sp117.pdf
*About the Seismic Hazard Zonation Maps:
These maps prepared by the California Geological Survey are State-mandated regulatory maps that show "Zones of Required Investigation" for surface fault rupture, liquefaction and landslide hazard. They do not depict different degrees of hazard, rather they identify zones within which site specific studies will be required for new construction. These maps also are used in real estate transactions - when a property falls within a "Zone of Required Investigation," sellers of that property must disclose that fact to prospective buyers.
NOTE: Some areas of the State scheduled for Seismic Hazard Zonation for liquefaction and earthquake-induced landslides are yet to be evaluated. If you are informed that you are not in a Seismic Hazard Zone, please check whether the Official Seismic Hazard Zone Map covering your area has been released (http://gmw.consrv.ca.gov/shmp/html/pdf_maps_no.html.)
Also, map scale limitations on this website do not always allow accurate determination of whether a property falls inside or outside a Zone of Required Investigation. This degree of uncertainty is addressed herein by use of the term "in or near" a zone. To determine property location relative to a zone boundary, please visit your local planning agency to view appropriate Official Seismic Hazard, Earthquake Fault Zone maps, and parcel maps.

February is Earthquake Awareness Month for the Central United States
February is Earthquake Awareness Month
January 2013 - 201 years ago, on January 23, a major earthquake struck the central United States near New Madrid, Missouri. The second in a series of at least three magnitude 7.0-8.0 earthquakes, an earthquake of this size today would be felt by millions of people and cause billions of dollars in damage an eight state area.
Beginning in the last week of January and throughout the month of February, CUSEC and our Member States will host various activities to highlight earthquake awareness and preparedness. Activities include press conferences, seminars, workshops, Governor's proclamations, town hall meetings, exhibits and safety fairs, public service announcements, earthquake related training, and the 3rd annual Great Central U.S. ShakeOut.
Visit the CUSEC calendar to learn more about the activities occurring during the Earthquake Awareness Month and beyond
