 Coastal Services (July/August 2004) - Tsunami! Preparing Hawaii for the next big wave
On November 29, 1975, a magnitude 7.2 earthquake occurred locally in the area of Kalapana, Hawaii, that within minutes generated a tsunami that reportedly reached heights of 47 feet.
Hawaii has worked hard to prepare the islands and its people for the inevitable wave that will come and has joined other Pacific states and the federal government in an effort to help save lives and property when the next tsunami does strike.
Although Hawaii is fortunate to have a federal warning system and statewide tsunami emergency response system in place, the decision to order an evacuation is not easy and must be made quickly.
