YES, MATTER AND ALL RIGHT
THANKS CAN. WE HAVE HAD SO
MUCH GOING ON THE PAST FEW
MONTHS THE HISTORIC WILDFIRES
PROTESTS ALL AMID A GLOBAL
PANDEMIC.
BUT IN THE MIDST OF ALL
THAT IT CAN BE EASY TO FORGET.
WE LIVE RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF
EARTHQUAKE TERRITORY TODAY
MARKS THE GREAT SHAKEOUT AN
ANNUAL EARTHQUAKE PREPAREDNESS
DRILL AND JOINING US LIVE TO
TALK MORE ABOUT THAT IS OFF
THE AIR THE GEOLOGICAL HAZARDS
PROGRAM COORDINATOR FOR THE
OREGON OFFICE OF EMERGENCY
MANAGEMENT THANKS SO MUCH FOR
BEING HERE. THANK YOU FOR THE
INVITATION AND SO I GUESS JUST
FIRST TELL US ABOUT YOU KNOW
ALL THE DETAILS ABOUT THIS
DRILL WHEN DOES THAT HAPPEN
TODAY.
SO THIS IS GREAT ORGAN
SHAKE IT HAPPENS AT 1015
TODAY, IT HAPPENS ON EVERY 3RD
THURSDAY IN OCTOBER AND THIS
IS A GREAT OPPORTUNITY TO
PRACTICE WHAT YOU DO. WHEN
THIS GROUND STARTS SHAKING.
SO FOR MOST PEOPLE WHAT
WOULD THAT LOOK LIKE WHAT
WOULD THEY BE WANTING TO DO.
OR WHEN YOU FIRST FEEL THE
SHAKING WHAT YOU WANT TO DO IS
DROP TO THE GROUND BECAUSE
EARTHQUAKES CAN BE SO STRONG
THAT THEY CAN THROW YOU THE
GROUND SUCH FORCE THAT YOU FIT
INTO YOUR CELL AND THEN YOU
WANT TO GET UNDER COVER OF
SOMETHING AND I HAVE MY HAND
IN THE KITCHEN TABLE RIGHT
HERE WE'VE GOT THE VACCINE.
UNDER LATER, BUT JUST GET
UNDER SOMETHING THAT WOULD
PROTECT YOU THE MOST COMMON
INJURY IS FROM STUFF ONLY ON
THIS AND INJURING US AND THEN
YOU WANT TO HOLD ON ONE TO THE
TABLE LEG, OR WHATEVER THAT
YOU'RE SHELTERING UNDERNEATH
BECAUSE AS THE SHAPING GOES
ON. THAT TABLE OR FINGER
POSSIBLY MOVE AROUND 61 WHAT
TO DO THIS COVER THE BACK YOUR
NECK WITH ONE HAND AND PULLED
ONTO THE TABLE LAKE WITH A
MAN.
HEY YOU KNOW I I WOULD
THINK THAT YOU KNOW PEOPLE
MIGHT WANT TO THINK ABOUT IF
THEY'RE IN A CERTAIN SPOT FOR
A LONG TIME LIKE LIE AND LIE,
AND I ARE ON THIS COUCH FOR
ABOUT 2 HOURS RIGHT THE
MORNING AT THIS TABLE IS TOO
LOW FOR US TO GET UNDERNEATH
SO I GUESS IN THAT CASE WHEN
WE WANT TO THINK ABOUT YOU
KNOW WHAT'S THE PLAN WHERE
WOULD WE WANT TO RUN IN THE
STUDIO BECAUSE THERE ARE A LOT
OF LIGHTS ABOVE US AND THEN
WHAT SHOULD PEOPLE BE THINKING
ABOUT IT MAYBE THEY'RE NOT IN
AN AREA WITH THE TABLE FOR AN
EXTENDED AMOUNT OF TIME.
SO IF YOU CAN'T GET
UNDERNEATH SOMETHING THEN YOU
CAN GET DOWN NEXT TO 4 FOR
INSTANCE IN FRONT OF THE COUCH
HERE THE TABLE. BUT IF YOU CAN
SEE IN THE TABLE THAT YOU GET
TO WITHIN JUST A FEW FEET. YOU
DON'T WANT TO TRY TO BE MOVING
VERY FAR BECAUSE AGAIN THE
SHAKING BE SO STRONG YOU CAN
FEEL YOU TO THE GROUND. SO IF
YOU JUMP DOWN IN WHILE TO HIS
FACE THAT WILL BE VERY
HELPFUL. SO IT'S JUST KIND OF
BEING SITUATION WE AWARE OF
YOUR SURROUNDINGS ON WHERE YOU
CAN CHECK TO REALLY QUICKLY IF
GROUND STARTS SHAKING.
YOU KNOW WE WE TALKED SO
OFTEN ABOUT THE BIG ONE THE
THE GREEN CASCADIA SUBDUCTION
QUAKE THAT COULD OCCUR HOW
LIKELY ARE WE TO SEE A REALLY
DAMAGING EARTHQUAKE IN THE
CASCADIA SUBDUCTION ZONE.
SO WE HAVE THESE
EARTHQUAKES AND ON AVERAGE
ABOUT 3 TO 500 YEARS, YOU KNOW
THAT THEY'RE LOOKING AT BEFORE
9 POINT OH EARTHQUAKE. BUT AS
WE FROM THERESA SAY IT'S IT
SHOWS THAT PARTS OF FAULT
ZONE, BUT SHARES UNLESS YOU'RE
SPIEL ABOUT EVERY 240 YEARS.
SO IT'S BEEN 320 YEARS SINCE
THE LAST ONE SO WE'RE
DEFINITELY WITHIN THE REALM OF
POSSIBILITY OF THIS THING
HAPPENING. THE CASCADIA IS NOT
OUR FALL SO THAT WE HAVE TO
WORRY ABOUT LOW FOR THE FALL.
WE HAVE A NUMBER OF SMALLER
THROUGHOUT OREGON. THAT CAN
PRODUCE SMALLER BUT MORE
LOCALLY DAMAGING EARTHQUAKES.
YEAH, WHAT IT SOUNDS LIKE AN
WELL GREAT CORRECT. I MEAN
ESPECIALLY WITH SOME OF OUR
BRIDGES AND AREAS LIKE THAT.
BELL WAS A PROBLEM BECAUSE.
YOU KNOW PEOPLE WORK ON ONE
SIDE OF THE RIVER THEY MAY
LIVE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE
RIVER GETS ME GO JUST FOR
CROSS THE RIVER. SO HAVING A
PLAN FOR HOW YOU'RE GOING TO.
IN NEXT WITH YOUR FAMILY AND
YOUR NEIGHBORS AFTER THE EVENT
WILL WORKING OUT THERE WE'RE
ALMOST OUT OF TIME, BUT I
WANTED TO ASK YOU YOU
MENTIONED MAKING THAT PLAN I
THINK THAT'S THE OTHER
IMPORTANT PART HERE WE'RE
GOING TO DO THAT THE DROP
COVER HOLD ON DRILL TODAY.
BUT BEYOND THAT MAKING THE
EMERGENCY PLAN WITH YOUR
FAMILY CHECKING YOUR SUPPLIES
WHAT ELSE SHOULD PEOPLE BE
DOING TO PREPARE.
THE REALLY MOST IMPORTANT
THING IS JUST TALKING ABOUT
THIS TO YOUR HOUSEHOLD TO YOUR
NEIGHBORS FIND OUT IF YOUR
NEIGHBORS HAVE. YOU KNOW DOING
HAVE SPECIAL NEEDS OR THEIR
ELDER TO HAVE SMALL AND JUST
REACHING OUT. SO YOU CAN TALK
THROUGH WHAT YOU CAN DO. WHEN
A DISASTER HAPPENS BECAUSE AS
WE SAW IN MARCH AND AS WE SAW
WILDFIRES, IT'S JUST NOT A
MATTER OF IF IT'S WHEN
SOMETHING. YOU KNOW WE'RE
GOING TO HAVE THAT DAY WILL.
AND THAT'S AND THAT'S WHEN
YOU DON'T HAVE THE TIME TO
PLAN ALL RIGHT WELL OUT THE
AIR IS THE OREGON OFFICE OF
EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT. THANK
YOU SO MUCH FOR JOINING US IN
AND PROVIDING THAT INFORMATION
VERY COME IN VERY USEFUL IN
