Coordinating Committee for Earthquake Prediction information


Areas of Specified Observation and Areas of Intensified Observation by CCEP

The Coordinating Committee for Earthquake Prediction (CCEP) (Japanese: 地震予知連絡会, Jishin Yochi Renraku-kai) in Japan was founded in April 1969,[1] as part of the Geodesy Council's Second Earthquake Prediction Plan, in order to carry out a comprehensive evaluation of earthquake data in Japan.[2] The committee consists of 30 members and meets four times each year, as well as publishing a report on its activities twice each year.[1] The CCEP brings together representatives from 20 governmental bodies and universities engaged in earthquake prediction and research.[3] It has a secretariat within the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism.[4]
