The Loss of Service “benefit for critical facilities” is not incorporated into my final report for the Earthquake-Structural module. Am I getting credit for it?

No, currently the Earthquake-Structural module only incorporates the annual budget values entered for “Other” loss of service types. This is a known bug in the Version 4.5.5 Earthquake-Structural module. This bug will be corrected in the next release of the software. To ensure the final BCR adequately incorporates the Loss of Service for critical facilities, calculate the Loss of Service total under the appropriate critical facility by answering the loss of service questions and pressing the “Show Total” button. Manually transfer this value, multiplied by 365, into the Annual Budget under the “Other” radio button. Select “Other” using the drop down menu under the Service Name and provide adequate justification and documentation in the Justification/Documentation field at the bottom of the page. Such justification might read: “Using Other Services annual budget as workaround for known bug with critical service calculations. See fire station, police station, and hospital loss of service
