Earthquakes can generate massive tsunamis that pose severe risks to coastal communities. The 2004 earthquake off Sumatra spawned a tsunami that killed an estimates 228,000 people. Facing its own tsunami risk, the Shoalwater Bay Indian Tribe built an evacuation tower serving the coastal community of Tokeland, Washington. This tower can hold more than 400 people, and it is a model for vertical towers that might be constructed in other tsunami hazard zones.
Here to describe this project is Maximilian Dixon, Earthquake Program Manager for the Washington Military Department’s Emergency Management Division. Maximilian earned three degrees from the University of Washington: a BS in Environmental Policy and master’s degrees in urban planning and infrastructure planning and management.
