Abstract
  • The City of Newport (City) plans to develop a tsunami evacuation site to serve the South Beach area. The proposed site consists of an undeveloped hill located adjacent to Highway 101, southwest of the Yaquina Bay Bridge (Figure 1A, Appendix A). The site will be designated Safe Haven Hill. This report addresses the design, construction and survivability of the tsunami evacuation site. The study focuses on subduction zone earthquake sources capable of generating a tsunami. Crustal earthquake sources were not considered. Therefore, the study includes certain elements, but is not intended to meet all the requirements of a site-specific seismic hazard study per the Oregon Structural Specialty Code.
