            The 
            ASC-N mailing list is maintained by the Amateur Seismic Centre (ASC). The information contained within the messages 
            sent out on this list are intended for informational purposes 
            only and are preliminary in nature! They contain early estimates of 
            earthquake locations obtained from Indian and global seismological 
            networks for earthquakes in the Subcontinent. These data can be expected 
            to differ with final estimates available days or weeks later. 
             
             
                    As of 13 April 2010, bulletins are issued for events 
                    that were widely felt or particularly noteworthy for other 
                    reasons within SAARC countries.  Following large earthquakes, 
            aftershocks will be selectively excluded. In special cases, bulletins are 
            issued for 
            
                          local or teleseismic events that do not fall in the 
            above criterion but produce macroseismic effects in SAARC nations. 
                    Please bear in mind these messages (including updates) will 
                    be issued several hours or even days after an event. 
                    Prior to 
                    April 2010, bulletins were issued for events of M>4.0 within 
                    SAARC countries (M>3.0 for urban areas & agglomerations with 
                    a population of more than 1-million). Bulletins were also be 
                    issued for M>7.0 earthquakes occurring within the Indian 
                    Ocean & the adjoining seas. In special cases, bulletins were 
                    issued for local or teleseismic events that did not fall in 
                    the above criterion but produced macroseismic effects in 
                    SAARC nations.
