Updates existing earthquake law to add work on developing standards, guidelines, and consensus codes to support post‑earthquake recovery of lifeline infrastructure (critical utilities and services). It also makes related technical edits. No new funding or tax changes are specified.
Referred to the Committee on Science, Space, and Technology, and in addition to the Committees on Transportation and Infrastructure, and Natural Resources, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned.
