Awards

The Western States Seismic Policy Council (WSSPC) implemented an awards program to support its mission to develop seismic policies and share information to promote programs intended to reduce earthquake-related losses. Since 1996, WSSPC awards have been effective in recognizing the hard-working, creative and innovative efforts of those within the earthquake hazards reduction community, brought greater visibility to exemplary programs, projects and products, and facilitated the transfer of successful experiences to other agencies.

Winners receive a plaque recognizing their achievement during the Awards Banquet at the WSSPC Annual Conference, and have an opportunity to display their winning projects. Descriptions of each awarded individual or program are posted on the WSSPC website.
