National Crisis Management Centre

The National Crisis Management Centre (NCMC), also known as the Beehive Bunker,[1] is the New Zealand government crisis management command centre situated under the "Beehive" building in Wellington.

It is designed to withstand earthquakes rated 'Intense' (X) on the Modified Mercalli scale, and is maintained by the National Emergency Management Agency to be always ready for an emergency.

The National Crisis Management Center aims for maximum autonomy in the event of an earthquake in Wellington. These measures and means include the following items: emergency electricity and water supply, security systems, etc.[2]

An Alternative National Crisis Management Centre was established in Auckland following the 2016 Kaikōura earthquake. It is intended to be activated if the facility in Wellington was damaged, in the event of a wide-spread emergency or if the national government has been forced to relocate to Auckland.[3]
