Seismic Safety
Seismically retrofit your building to keep yourself and our community safer in case of an earthquake.
If you own an unreinforced masonry or soft, weak, or open front building, you are required to retrofit your building. Other types of buildings may also benefit from retrofits to be better prepared for an earthquake. Find funding to help you pay for seismic retrofits, including grants, tax refunds, and loans. Prepare your business to reopen sooner following an earthquake with the Building Occupancy Resumption Program.
