Coastal Hazards
Tsunami hazard maps for the Oregon coast


Below are the official maps for implementation of Oregon Revised Statutes (ORS) 455.446 and 455.447, limiting construction of certain critical and essential facilities in the tsunami inundation zone.

These maps are not intended for emergency evacuation purposes and do not necessarily represent tsunami inundation from a worst-case event. Recommended evacuation areas are illustrated on evacuation brochures produced for selected parts of the Oregon coast [put in link to brochures]. Potential flooding for a worst-case tsunami event is also depicted on tsunami inundation maps produced from detailed computer simulations of tsunami flooding. These maps are available for selected population centers. At present these detailed tsunami inundation maps are available for the following areas:

This map list runs north to south along the Oregon coast.

Click on a name to see that map as a PDF file.

Some of these files are as large as 5MB and may take a while to load after the PDF viewer (Acrobat) launches.

The map to the right is for reference only.
