Cascadia Earthquake Training
(Portland, OR) -- A training exercise was held last week to prepare for a Cascadia Subduction Zone earthquake. Emergency planners say that would likely be the region's most significant natural disaster. The Port of Portland hosted the event. Senior leaders and planners discussed various scenarios and got insights into federal and military support capabilities during a catastrophic incident. Oregon's Department of Emergency Management, the Governor's Office and U-S Navy were among the participants.
