Midwest Earthquakes
1992 - 1996
1992 through 1996 seizmic disturbances
arising from the New Madrid Fault Zone. Information is received
routinely by autofax from University of Memphis and National
Weather Wire from National Earthquake Center. Data is entered
by latitude and longitude into the St. Charles County EMD
Geographic Emergency Information System on a daily basis to
track activity. This is routinely shared with all 24-hour
dispatch centers, within the County that have the EIS system
via digital communication broadcasting from the County Emergency
Operations Center. Like severe thunderstorms, flood stages
and earthquake seizmic activity, the St. Charles County Division
of Emergency Management closely monitors on a 7 day 24-hour
basis.
