IDA030 - Seismic Safety

IDA 030

July 21, 1995

ASSISTANT VICE CHANCELLOR-DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION SERVICES
DEPUTY EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, UCI MEDICAL CENTER

RE: Delegation of Authority - Seismic Safety

The University Policy on Seismic Safety, dated May 17, 1988 [superseded by UC Policy on Seismic Safety issued January 17, 1995], made Chancellors responsible for taking all reasonable steps to assure protection of persons under their respective jurisdictions against the effects of earthquakes which could result in the loss of life or injury to persons. I am assigning the Assistant Vice Chancellor-Design and Construction Services and the Deputy Executive Director, UCI Medical Center responsibility for implementing University policies to ensure the seismic safety of structures; for coordinating independent seismic review of structures for the Irvine campus; and for development of campus policy and procedures to ensure compliance with all University requirements for seismic safety of structures.

This authority may not be redelegated further and supersedes the October 20, 1989 delegation of authority from Chancellor Peltason on the same subject.
