Firstly I apologise for the second message under new subject header on same
subject,but it appeared the first message vanished.I'm still learning to
navigate the system.
From what I understand,there isn't much seismic activity in the Pac.NW but
when quakes do occur they can be in the mag.8+ range.With so little activity in
the area I don't beleive they have any real construction codes such as Ca. has
implemented.Having experienced the 9.2 mag. quake in Anchorage in 1964 I can
understand the concern people may have in that area.This should be interesting
to watch.
