N2  - Several seismic gaps are identified along the coast of Chile. The main one is located in the northern part of the country (18° S-20° S), where a THRUST seismic trigger has been installed; two more triggers will be placed in other seismic gaps. The Standard Operations Plan (SOP) was tested during a disaster simulation exercise based on a major earthquake and tsunami situation. Response actions by governmental and civil agencies were monitored and a performance evaluation was done. Modifications of the SOP were found necessary to adjust the interactions between agencies.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
