A significant earthquake, registering a magnitude of 6.0, struck Alaska early on Thursday, as reported by the U.S. Geological Survey.
The tremor was recorded at 8:11 a.m. local time and was centered near Susitna, approximately 30 miles from Anchorage, according to the USGS data.

The National Tsunami Warning Center has indicated that the earthquake is unlikely to generate a tsunami.
No damage or casualties have been reported, as confirmed by Austin McDaniel, the communications director for Alaska State Troopers, in a statement to ABC News.
The Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities is actively inspecting infrastructure, including highways, bridges, airports, and tunnels, to assess any potential impact, the agency announced.
The Alaska Seismic Hazards Safety Commission notes that the state experiences more seismic activity than any other region in the United States.
The state is located where two tectonic plates — the Pacific Plate and the North American Plate — meet, which can result in strong earthquakes, according to the Alaska Earthquake Center.

A 9.2 magnitude earthquake, the second-largest ever recorded, occurred in 1964 in the Prince William Sound region.
