duced its new C ritical Unit, possibly

.says W illiam Long, M .D , Director o f

Governor Seeks Federal
Earthquake Assistance
to public facilities.
Since FEM A officials estimate
that private, uninsured losses due to
the quake did not reach a level that
would qualify for assistance under a
major disaster declaration, the Gover
nor w ill also sign a letter to the U.S.
Small Business Adm inistration seek
ing a separate emergency declaration
that would allow aid such as low-
interest loans for repairs to private
homes and businesses
Governor Roberts also signed and
executive order certifying her deter
mination that extreme damage oc
curred in Clackamas, M arion and
Y a m hill Counties,and instructing the
Oregon Em ergency Management
Agency to coordinate all efforts to
secure Federal or other earthquake
assistance. (Steve Corson, 378-6307)
After reviewing damage assess
ments prepared by the Federal Emer
gency Management Agency in coop
eration w ith state and local officials.
Governor Barbara Roberts has asked
for federal emergency assistance due
to last week’ s earthquake.
“ I t ’ s clear that we were very
lucky last week,” Governor Roberts
said. "Damage for that magnitude
o f earthquake could have been
far worse. Nonetheless, state and
local governments, businesses, and
private fa m ilies and in d iv id u a ls
did suffer substantial losses, and we
need federal help to mitigate those
losses.”
The Governor has sought a “ ma
jo r disaster” declaration from Presi
dent Clinton for FEM A aid that would
assist local governments w ith repairs
Earthquake Hazard Maps
Available To The Public
G A M ES
Metro and the state o f Oregon
w ill have available a newly-released
earth-quake hazard map and two ac
company ing technical reports begin
ning A p ril 1.
The map outlines areas most
likely to be affected during an earth
quake but focuses only on a small
portion o f the metropolitan region.
That small portion—called The Port
land Quardrangle-w as the subject o f
a year-long pilot project by the O r
egonDepartm ent o f Geology and
M ineral Industries.
The quadrangle is w ithin the
. city ofPortland The northern bound
ary is the Columbia River. The west

(18th & Killings worth)
ern boundary is along 36th Avenue,
and the so uth ern b ou nd ary is
Marquam H ill and Tibbetts Street.
Metro and the Department o f
Geology and M ineral Industries re
cently received $700,000 in federal
funds to expand the pilot project. The
two agencies expect to begin studying
additional portions o f the region ad
jacent to the Portland quadrangle
w ith in the next two months. Studying
the entire region depends on contin
ued federal funding.
Cost o f the map and accompany
ing technical reports is $10, which
covers a small portion o f the two
agencies’ staff time and material costs.
One o f the reports explains the data
that went into producing the hazards
map. The other report outlines the
damage and loss likely to occur in a
16-block area w ith in the quadrangle
during a hypothetical earthquake.
The map and reports can be pur
chased and picked up at two locations:
