Businesses also need the city to address the issue of transient workers who are trappeddowntown as a result of the earthquake. Provisions for assisting these people (including specificarrangements for shelter, water, food, and sanitation) should be included in city plans.The economic impact of Intel losing power for longer than 10 hours or of the university beingslow to recover from an earthquake would be very high. Extreme measures might be needed toaddress particular cases (for example, setting up special contracts to bring in essential supplies(such as fuel) by air or to provide temporary facilities for employees).20 | CREW Business Roundtables
