NIST and supporting contractors, George Washington University and University of Puerto Rico-Medical Sciences Campus, are currently recruiting respondents for surveys for this project. If you have been contacted, please consider participating. Your response will contribute to recommended improvements in building codes, standards, and practices to make communities in Puerto Rico and across the United States more resilient to hurricanes and other disasters.

Notwithstanding any other provisions of the law, no person is required to respond to, nor shall any person be subject to a penalty for failure to comply with, a collection of information subject to the requirements of the PRA unless that collection of information displays a currently valid OMB control number. You will find this number and all required information in materials provided to you during the recruitment process.
