Reconnaissance was performed to investigate areas of soil liquification and large ground deformation. The 1989 earthquake permitted the investigation of areas of previous liquefaction and make assessments regarding reliquefaction, permanent ground movements, soil-structure interaction, and the influence of subsurface soil conditions and groundwater on site response. Another goal of the reconnaissance was to assess the damage to buried lifelines and its consequences on emergency response. Of principal interest was the water distribution system
