This workshop was designed to define the earthquake threat in the eastern United States and to improve earthquake preparedness. Four major themes were addressed: (1) the nature of the earthquake threat in the northeast and what can be done to improve the state of preparedness; (2) increasing public awareness and concern for the earthquake hazard in the northeast; (3) improving the state of preparedness through scientific, engineering, and social science research; and (4) possible functions of one or more seismic safety organizations.
