Seismic Safety

The Rural Utilities Services (RUS) is amending its regulation to update and simplify the requirements of the agency. This final rule provides RUS borrowers, grant recipients, Rural Telephone Bank (RTB) borrowers and the public with updated rules for compliance with seismic safety requirements for new building construction using RUS or RTB loan, grant or guaranteed funds or funds provided through lien accommodations or subordinations approved by RUS or RTB. These revisions will identify model codes and standards found to provide a required level of seismic safety.
