Abstrakt:	A statistical model for describing the energy scaling of the distribution of inter-event times is described. By considering the diverse region seismicity (natural and induced) on different scale (energy/magnitude) levels the self-similarity of the distribution has been determined. A comparison between the distribution of inter-event times on different scale levels and the most popular distributions of reliability theory has been carried out. The distribution of inter-event times for different scale levels is well approximated by the Weibull distribution. The Weibull distribution, with parameters which obey the scaling model and the Gutenberg-Richter law, has been tested. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
