Core Activities of the Committee on Earthquake Engineering

这个奖项是为了重新支持国家研究委员会（NRC）地震工程委员会。该委员会成立于1983年，是NRC的一个常设委员会，在国家减少地震灾害计划下为地震工程研究活动提供全国联络中心。该委员会对地震工程和相关活动进行分析和评估，并向机构和项目提供建议，作为未来的基础规划。

This award is for renewed support for the National Research Council's (NRC) Committee on Earthquake Engineering. The committee was established in 1983 as a standing committee at the NRC to provide a national focal point for earthquake engineering research activities under the National Earthquake Hazards Reduction Program. The committee conducts analyses and assessments of earthquake engineering and related activities and offers recommendations to agencies and programs which can serve as the basis for future planning.
