| description abstract | Government and industry discussion of the Triple 3 Resilience Target was the focus of the 2014 Cascadia Earthquake Readiness Workshop in Washington, United States. Workshop findings are presented from breakout sessions on critical energy infrastructure, ports and waterways, and emergency management. These prompted the examination of new perspectives on building resilience into lifeline infrastructure systems (lifelines which are critical infrastructure), including a call for new Pacific Northwest regional, collaborative, cross-sector public-private leadership groups to develop coordinated restoration priorities, and enacting policies to promote, enforce, and track the building of resilience in complex, interdependent infrastructure systems. Finally, the resilience prism is introduced, which displays the link between critical infrastructure resilience and the Triple 3 Resilience Target to address postdisaster needs for both individuals and communities. | |
