Description	An executive order by Governor Tina Kotek mandates that most new state-owned buildings over 10,000 square feet be earthquake-proofed immediately. By 2060, all buildings owned or leased by the state for executive branch agencies must either be upgraded for earthquake safety or replaced. Priority is given to retrofitting buildings over 50,000 square feet and those housing first responder agencies in strategic locations. This initiative aims to make state buildings resilient to a major anticipated Cascadia Subduction Zone earthquake, known as 'The Big One'.
