["Barbara Filkins" <filkins () impulse net>]

No and I tried to find a similar resource here in Los Angeles as part of a
risk assessment.  Please post what you find to this list!  Thanks, Barb

Subject: Proximity of DR Sites & U.S. City Hazards

Do you know of a standard that defines the distance between a business and
its DR site? From what I recall, the minimum distance should be 50/200
miles, not accounting for hazards.

I have already checked ISO 17799 and thought this might be an easy answer
for those of you dedicated to DR/BCP.

I am also looking for a definitive resource that lists hazards in major U.S.
cities (e.g. fault lines, hurricane zones, etc.).

Thanks for your time and consideration. I appreciate it.

Kind regards,

Gideon
