Lunchtime Forum

The USGS has been preparing the report HayWired, which looks at the impacts that a large quake might have on the Bay Area. A critical component of the report considers how an earthquake might affect two vulnerable elements that are rarely examined: our at-risk communities and our water system. Come learn what we should expect and be preparing for. Generously sponsored by PG&E and co-presented by Joint Venture Silicon Valley.
