MARX Seaside Signal Seaside’s Doug Dougherty will be among the presenters at a major national event — the Eleventh U.S. National Conference on Earthquake Engineering: Integrating Sci- ence, Engineering and Policy, June 25-29, in Los Angeles. The former Seaside School District superinten- dent led the effort to raise awareness of the district’s at-risk schools in the event of a Cascadia Subduction Zone earthquake and tsunami. Dougherty and others devel- oped and promoted a 2016 measure successfully raising R.J. Marx Doug Dougherty with U.S. Sen. Ron Wyden in 2016. $99.7 million for new schools outside of the tsunami zone. Dougherty achieved national attention in the Pulitzer Prize-winning New Yorker piece “The Really Big One,” by Kathryn Schulz. He was also extensively profiled in Bonnie Henderson’s “The Next Tsunami,” which chron- icles his efforts to build safer schools. Dougherty, who retired from the district in 2016, serves on the Oregon Seis- mic Safety Policy Advisory Commission and is work- ing on Senate Bill 850 to develop the Mass Care and Shelter plan for Oregon. Dougherty co-authored “Oregon Schools Face ‘The Really Big One: Advancing School-Centered Community Resilience,” with researchers Yumei Wang and Ted Wolf.
