Wash. State, Central Puget Sound--Simulated large-magnitude earthquakes will hit the Puget Sound area on June 4, 2012. Triggered by these faux quakes, city, county, state, tribal and federal agencies will exercise their response and recovery plans as the 2012 Evergreen Quake Exercise Series kicks off. The first week of June will be a two-day response exercise; the next week, a logistics exercise; and, to wrap up the series, two tabletop exercises on short- and long-term recovery will occur in August.
