Subject: Proximity of DR Sites & U.S. City Hazards

Do you know of a standard that defines the distance between a 
business and its DR site? From what I recall, the minimum 
distance should be 50/200 miles, not accounting for hazards.

I have already checked ISO 17799 and thought this might be an 
easy answer for those of you dedicated to DR/BCP.

I am also looking for a definitive resource that lists hazards 
in major U.S. cities (e.g. fault lines, hurricane zones, etc.).

Thanks for your time and consideration. I appreciate it.

Kind regards,

Gideon
