Hmm most wise builders have a 3 to 4 foot high concrete fuel cell mount pedestal and generator mount type pedestal now days, to help prevent some of these problems, especially at critical data centers.

Perhaps. but even the best layed plans can get scuttled. And in this case 3 to 4 feet would not have been enough. Many ATM cash machines are off-line all over the country because EDS's data center in New Jersey went down due to power failures and flooding. If there was a data center that met the description of a "bunker" that was it.
