8th National Conference
Bechtel donation supports chapter tutorials
EERI-NC recently received a $10,000 donation from the Bechtel Foundation. EERI-NC and EERI are grateful that the Bechtel Foundation shares our interest in educating the public and protecting our communities from earthquakes.
Everything from “How to retrofit your home” to “Principles of Earthquake Loss Estimation” is on a preliminary list of topics to be presented to diverse audiences at the April 2006 conference. Click here to see the Chapter’s plan to produce and present these mini-seminars. Contact President-Elect Ivan Wong with ideas or to volunteer.
Celebrating accomplishments in Seismology,
Earthquake Engineering and Emergency Management
- What do we now know about the great SF Earthquake and California's seismic hazard?
- What are we doing to reduce earthquake losses today?

The Joint Conference will include EERI's 8NCEE and Annual Meeting, SSA's Annual Meeting and 100th Anniversary, and the OES Disaster Resistant California Conference and feature a gala anniversary reception, joint luncheon, technical sessions, field trips and much more!
