Earthquake Preparedness
Governor Herbert Declares April 4 - 10 Earthquake Preparedness Week
Why is earthquake preparedness important in Utah?
Utah has experienced damaging earthquakes in the past and geologic evidence indicates that earthquakes larger than any experienced locally in historical time are likely in the future.
We must prepare for earthquakes because:* Utah is a seismically active region* A majority of Utah's population is concentrated in the areas of greatest hazard* Many of Utah's older buildings and lifelines have low earthquake resistance

This guide explains what to do before, during and after and earthquake with all the latest information about Utah's earthquake threat.

Remember, we do live on a faultline here along the Wasatch Front. So being prepared is a smart thing to do!

Watch For This Car!

At a soccer game this morning (Saturday, March 27th), an aware parent noticed a white Lincoln Continental driving slowly around, checking out the people and the neighborhood. He approached the car to ask if they needed help or what they were looking for. He also started taking down their license plate number. The two White males and one Hispanic male then got defensive asking why he was taking down the license number. He told them he was taking it down to turn it in. The questionable Lincoln then left the scene.

Please be aware of this particular vehicle and if seen, notify authorities!! The phone number for dispatch is in red at the left of the screen. Thank you to this unknown parent for being so aware of his surroundings and taking the initiative to get the license number!!

Let's keep our neighborhood safe!
