Industrial Hardening: 1983 Technical Status Report.

Abstract

This report presents the results of the third year of a five-year program to improve and augment a self-help program in disaster preparedness for industry. As part of this program, means for the protection of industrial capability (PIC) have been addressed for inclusion in guidelines developed to help U.S. industry conduct vulnerability assessment of production facilities to a wide range of emergencies and disasters and reduce this vulnerability through application of appropriate countermeasures. Reported are: continuing efforts that have involved assessment of technical and practical feasibilities of industry implementation of PIC concepts; development and testing of more expedient techniques (simpler, faster, less costly); conversion of these studies and data into guidelines; and inclusion of these materials into revised guidance.
