  • Introduction San Andreas Fault: an Overview
    Introduction This volume is a general geology field guide to the San Andreas Fault in the San Francisco Bay Area. The first section provides a brief overview of the San Andreas Fault in context to regional California geology, the Bay Area, and earthquake history with emphasis of the section of the fault that ruptured in the Great San Francisco Earthquake of 1906. This first section also contains information useful for discussion and making field observations associated with fault- related landforms, landslides and mass-wasting features, and the plant ecology in the study region. The second section contains field trips and recommended hikes on public lands in the Santa Cruz Mountains, along the San Mateo Coast, and at Point Reyes National Seashore. These trips provide access to the San Andreas Fault and associated faults, and to significant rock exposures and landforms in the vicinity. Note that more stops are provided in each of the sections than might be possible to visit in a day. The extra material is intended to provide optional choices to visit in a region with a wealth of natural resources, and to support discussions and provide information about additional field exploration in the Santa Cruz Mountains region. An early version of the guidebook was used in conjunction with the Pacific SEPM 2004 Fall Field Trip. Selected references provide a more technical and exhaustive overview of the fault system and geology in this field area; for instance, see USGS Professional Paper 1550-E (Wells, 2004). San Andreas Fault: An Overview The catastrophe caused by the 1906 earthquake in the San Francisco region started the study of earthquakes and California geology in earnest.

Johnson College of Oceanic and Atmospheric Sciences, Oregon State University, Corvallis, Oregon 97331; email: [email protected] Northern San Andreas Seismotectonic Setting The San Andreas Fault is probably the best-known transform system in the world. Extending along the west cost of North America, from the Salton Sea to Cape Mendocino, it is the largest component of a complex and wide plate boundary that extends eastward to encompass numerous other strike-slip fault strands and interactions with the Basin and Range extensional province. The Mendocino Triple junction lies at the termination of the northern San Andreas, and has migrated northward since about 25-28 Ma. As the triple junction moves, the former subduction forearc transitions to right lateral transform motion. West of the Sierra Nevada block, three main fault systems accommodate ~75% of the Pacific-North America plate motion, distributed over a 100 km wide zone (Argus and Gordon, 1991). The remainder is carried by the Eastern California Shear Zone (Argus and Gordon, 1991; Sauber, 1994).

  • Seismicity Patterns in Southern California Before and After the 1994
    U.S. DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR U.S. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY Seismicity Patterns in Southern California Before and After the 1994 Northridge Earthquake: A Preliminary Report by Paul A. Reasenberg Open-File Report 95-484 This report is preliminary and has not been reviewed for conformity with U.S. Geological Survey edi­ torial standards. Any use of trade, product or firm names is for descriptive purposes only and does not imply endorsement by the U.S. Government. 1995 Menlo Park, CA 94025 INTRODUCTION This report describes seismicity patterns in southern California before and after the January 17, 1994 Northridge (Mw = 6.7) earthquake. The report is preliminary in the sense that it was prepared as soon as the necessary data became available. The observations presented below of seismicity one year before and up to 3 months after the Northridge earthquake were compiled on April 18, 1994. The observations of the second quarter-year of post-seismic activity (April 17 to July 17) were compiled the week of July 18, 1994. The scope of the report is limited to the description of seismi­ city patterns, and excludes analysis of the regional geology, static and dynamic stresses and deformations associated with the Northridge (or previous) earthquakes, or other factors that may be relevant to a full understanding of the regional tectonics. For a summary of the Northridge earthquake see Scientists of the U.S. Geological Survey and the Southern California Earthquake Center (1994). Various meanings have been ascribed to the term "pattern". Taken out of context, any "snapshot" or finite sample taken from nature will contain patterns.

  • 4.05 Geology, Soils and Seismicity
    SERRAMONTE SHOPPING CENTER EXPANSION PROJECT DRAFT EIR CITY OF DALY CITY GEOLOGY, SOILS, AND SEISMICITY 4.5 GEOLOGY, SOILS, AND SEISMICITY This chapter describes potential impacts associated with the implementation of the proposed Serramonte Shopping Center Expansion Project (Project) that may be related to geology, soils, and seismicity. This chapter also describes the environmental setting of the Project, including the regulatory framework, existing conditions, and policies and mitigation measures that would prevent or reduce significant impacts. 4.5.1 ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING The State of California as well as the City of Daly City have enacted laws and developed regulations that pertain to geology, soils, and seismicity. There are no federal laws or regulations related to geology, soils, and seismicity that are applicable to the Project. The following laws and regulations are relevant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) review process for the Project. 4.5.1.1 REGULATORY FRAMEWORK State Regulations Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Fault Zoning Act The Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Fault Zoning Act was passed in 1972 to mitigate the hazard of surface fault rupture to 1 structures used for human occupancy. The main purpose of the Act is to prevent the construction of buildings used for human occupancy on top of the traces of active faults. It was passed into law following the February 1971 Mw 6.5 San Fernando (Sylmar) Earthquake that resulted in over 500 million dollars in property damage and 65 deaths.2 Although the Act addresses the hazards associated with surface fault rupture, it does not address other earthquake-related hazards, such as seismically induced ground shaking, liquefaction, or landslides.

  • I. Presentation Summary II. Key Takeaways
    City of Hayward Downtown Specific Plan Task Force Meeting #1 Summary Notes December 12, 2016 6:00pm – 8:00pm Hayward City Hall, 777 B St, Hayward, CA 94541 Conference Room 2A I. Presentation Summary On December 12, 2016, the City of Hayward and lead consultant Lisa Wise Consulting, Inc. (LWC) held the first Task Force meeting for the Downtown Hayward Specific Plan (Project). LWC presented an overview of the project with an accompanying PowerPoint presentation on the makeup of the consultant team, task force purpose and role, outreach program, meetings to date, and schedule and next steps. Following the presentation, LWC posed four questions to the Task Force and other meeting attendees on Downtown Hayward: 1) Key Issues, 2) Strengths, 3) Greatest Opportunities for Improvement, and 4) How Can the Specific Plan Help. Findings from the discussion are summarized below. II. Key Takeaways Community outreach efforts should consider broader audiences, and reach out to local high schools, senior centers, neighborhoods outside of the Downtown, and large employers – including advanced manufacturing and biotech companies that have recently located to Hayward. Homelessness has and will continue to be a major issue impacting the perception of safety Downtown. Pedestrian and bicycle safety should be a priority of the planning effort. Despite the close community and attractive amenities, Downtown lacks a sense of place and identity. Vacancies are a problem in Downtown, largely because of absentee landlords who have little or no connection or commitment to the community or incentive to improve their properties. There is a potential to build off of the “family friendly” environment and reputation of Downtown.

The purpose of the project was to engage the community in developing a shared vision about future development of Downtown Hayward and provide recommendations based on that vision. This planning project entailed the preparation of three interrelated documents: the Synoptic Survey recording the existing characteristics of the Downtown area, the Public Outreach Report that summarizes the community engagement process and public input, and this Envision Downtown Hayward document. The document provides a summary of the planning recommendations that are born out of the suggestions and ideas offered by the community during public workshops, stakeholder interviews and community opinion surveys. These recommendations address future development of Downtown, with specific proposals for three Opportunity Areas that have particularly strong development potential.
