NOAA Tech. Memo. OAR PMEL-136, NTIS: PB2008-101460, Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory, Seattle, WA, 125 pp. + appendices on CD (2007)

This report provides a review and discussion of existing scientific and technical reports related to tsunami hazard assessment, and organizes the information in the form of a “Template Tsunami Hazard Assessment (THA).” This provides a general scientific and technical framework that can serve as a starting point for the development of improved and more detailed procedures to guide Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) reviews of applications to build and operate nuclear power plants.
