| Abstract: | The purpose of the study was twofold; to determine the total length of the Maacama fault which should be considered and to estimate the maximum credible earthquake it could produce. Investigations have included a review of geological reports and maps of the region, interpretation of various types and scales of remotely sensed imagery, compilation of data collected by other agencies, reconnaissance field checking of portions of the fault zone, a microseismic survey, an evaluation of the historic seismicity, and consultations with appropriate State and Federal agencies, as well as with geological and seismological consultants obtained specifically for the Maacama fault study. |
