Coordinating Committee for Earthquake Prediction
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.[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.This was adopted by the General Assembly of Geodesy Council with the launch of their first prediction plan in 1964.Following earthquakes in 1964, 1965, and 1968 the EEPC was founded to coordinate future prediction activities.
