Disaster Preparedness Exercises To Begin In L.A.:
Three days of large-scale disaster preparedness exercises will begin Tuesday with the scenario of a terrorist attack in the wake of an earthquake, officials said.

The California National Guard will host the interstate and interagency exercises, which will be conducted at major landmarks throughout Los Angeles, a guard official said.

Tuesday’s exercise will simulate a terrorist cell taking advantage of the chaos and devastation caused by a large earthquake.
LA Times raises "concerns":
Although no one would dispute the need for emergency workers to be prepared, some residents and providers of services to veterans expressed concern Monday that the drill on the north side of the VA grounds could unsettle neighbors and veterans being treated at the campus.
