Inter-Systems Relationships. Local Vulnerability of Utilities - San Jose

Abstract

This report examines the inter-systems relationships of utility systems at San Jose, California in their post nuclear-attack state. Systems studied included water supply, sewerage and drainage, electric power, gas, telephone, radio broadcasting and television, petroleum distribution and local transportation. For each system, input requirements from other systems were identified, the points of inter-connection located, the availability of the input determined and the effect of such availability on the output of the system calculated. Net total post-attack systems capabilities were then derived.
