Abstract:

Through the development of a Harvard Kennedy School case study (intended for use as curriculum in graduate-level and executive education programs), this project examines earthquake preparedness and planning processes in the Los Angeles metropolitan region– specifically in connection to the area’s transportation network. By providing an in-depth description of how regional transportation and emergency management authorities planned and otherwise prepared for dealing with a high-consequence hazard (the US Geological Service has determined that southern California is overdue for an extremely powerful earthquake), the case enables students of public policy and administration to examine critical pre-event emergency management functions and to improve their ability to deal with similar challenges in their future professional work.
