"This hurricane exercise stems from a research project funded by the National Science Foundation in the early 1990s to develop a way to train local government officials about long-term recovery and reconstruction after earthquakes. The research, conducted by Spangle Associates, Urban Planning and Research, culminated in a table-top training exercise for local government staffs."--Introduction
