CAUSE AND EFFECTRESILIENCY = PREPARE TO RESPOND, PREPARE TO RECOVER


NOT IF…WHEN


BE PREPARED BY BEING RESILIENT!Recovering from any natural or manmade disaster depends on how well a community has prepared itself to face them.

It turns out that many of our manmade urban systems, that work well under normal circumstances, are in fact highly vulnerable to large scale disasters, whether it is the Cascadia quake and tsunami, the Seattle fault, an economic downturn, a climate related, or even a terrorist related event, something is going to occur and we need to be better prepared.


ASCE REPORT C- Bridges: As of 2011, there were 7,743 bridges

in Washington state. Of these, 5% (391) are structurally deficient. This places Washington state sixth in the nation for least number of structurally deficient bridges. However, the state maintains an aging infrastructure struggling to handle the demands of modern society.

D+ Roads: There are more than 136,000 miles of roadways in Washington State, on which 87 million vehicle-miles are driven daily. The bulk of this system was built more than fifty years ago and has lasted for longer and carries more traffic than it was originally designed for. Just as maintenance and improvement needs are increasing, transportation funding is decreasing.

C Schools: Washington has an estimated 2,050 school facilities with capacity for 1.2 million students. Some school facilities are over capacity and some under. Over the past 20 years, Washington state has contributed a total of approximately $3.9 billion to help fund 1,315 school construction and renovation projects.

C- Drinking Water: Washington state is known for having great tasting, clear drinking water. Washington is served by many different types of water systems: private wells, large municipal water systems, and private water systems.
