This booklet is an update of Earthquakes in the Canberra Region published by the Australian Geological Survey Organisation (AGSO, now Geoscience Australia) and the ACT Emergency Services Bureau in 1996. As 10 years have passed since the previous booklet was published, it was considered appropriate to produce an updated version which includes the more recent earthquake activity in the ACT and surrounding region. Postage and handling costs will be charged for distribution of this product.
