FEMA has reported that a nationwide adoption of modern codes would result in $600 billion in savings from disaster impact by 2060.
If we want to support mitigation efforts that offer the greatest return on investment, it is common sense to provide communities with the resources they need to adopt the latest codes.
So, our Coasties deserve not only a robust healthcare system, but also the access to other services, like behavioral health services, that meet their needs promptly and effectively.
However, this activity has been dominated by Russian-flagged vessels, and both Russia and China have jockeyed for control of the region.
