What's Coming Next

Designed with a 9.0 earthquake in mind, the Regional Resiliency Building (RRB) is an investment in improving our community resiliency.

A major Cascadia subduction zone earthquake could have catastrophic effects on the region. The RRB will provide support for day-to-day operations and long term recovery post-earthquake.  It will serve as a secure location for critical communications and network infrastructure as well as a regional emergency coordination center.

The RRB proposal is supported by local and regional government agencies, utilities, and organizations.
