technical disciplines, competencies, and communities involved in 
earthquake hazards reduction. In addition, the Chairperson of the U.S. 
Geological Survey Scientific Earthquake Studies Advisory Committee 
serves as an ex-officio member of the Committee. The Committee 
assesses:
     Trends and developments in the science and engineering of 
earthquake hazards reduction;
     the effectiveness of NEHRP in performing its statutory 
activities;
     any need to revise NEHRP; and
     the management, coordination, implementation, and 
activities of NEHRP.
