    3. Environmental Setting, Impacts, and Mitigation Measures 3.6 Geology and Soils 3.6 Geology and Soils This section describes and evaluates potential impacts related to geology and soils conditions and hazards, including paleontological resources. The section contains: (1) a description of the existing regional and local conditions of the Project Site and the surrounding areas as it pertains to geology and soils as well as a description of the Adjusted Baseline Environmental Setting; (2) a summary of the federal, State, and local regulations related to geology and soils; and (3) an analysis of the potential impacts related to geology and soils associated with the implementation of the Proposed Project, as well as identification of potentially feasible mitigation measures that could mitigate the significant impacts. Comments received in response to the NOP for the EIR regarding geology and soils can be found in Appendix B. Any applicable issues and concerns regarding potential impacts related to geology and soils that were raised in comments on the NOP are analyzed in this section. The analysis included in this section was developed based on Project-specific construction and operational features; the Paleontological Resources Assessment Report prepared by ESA and dated July 2019 (Appendix I); and the site-specific existing conditions, including geotechnical hazards, identified in the Preliminary Geotechnical Report prepared by AECOM and dated September 14, 2018 (Appendix H).1 3.6.1 Environmental Setting Regional Setting The Project Site is located in the northern Peninsular Ranges geomorphic province close to the boundary with the Transverse Ranges geomorphic province. The Transverse Ranges geomorphic province is characterized by east-west trending mountain ranges that include the Santa Monica Mountains.

  • And Short-Term Stress Interaction of the 2019 Ridgecrest Sequence and Coulomb-Based Earthquake Forecasts Shinji Toda*1 and Ross S
    Special Section: 2019 Ridgecrest, California, Earthquake Sequence Long- and Short-Term Stress Interaction of the 2019 Ridgecrest Sequence and Coulomb-Based Earthquake Forecasts Shinji Toda*1 and Ross S. Stein2 ABSTRACT We first explore a series of retrospective earthquake interactions in southern California. M ≥ ∼ We find that the four w 7 shocks in the past 150 yr brought the Ridgecrest fault 1 bar M M closer to failure. Examining the 34 hr time span between the w 6.4 and w 7.1 events, M M we calculate that the w 6.4 event brought the hypocentral region of the w 7.1 earth- M quake 0.7 bars closer to failure, with the w 7.1 event relieving most of the surrounding M stress that was imparted by the first. We also find that the w 6.4 cross-fault aftershocks M shut down when they fell under the stress shadow of the w 7.1. Together, the Ridgecrest mainshocks brought a 120 km long portion of the Garlock fault from 0.2 to 10 bars closer to failure. These results motivate our introduction of forecasts of future seismicity. Most attempts to forecast aftershocks use statistical decay models or Coulomb stress transfer. Statistical approaches require simplifying assumptions about the spatial distribution of aftershocks and their decay; Coulomb models make simplifying assumptions about the geometry of the surrounding faults, which we seek here to remove. We perform a rate– state implementation of the Coulomb stress change on focal mechanisms to capture fault complexity. After tuning the model through a learning period to improve its forecast abil- ity, we make retrospective forecasts to assess model’s predictive ability.

  • IV. Environmental Impact Analysis D. Geology and Soils
    IV. Environmental Impact Analysis D. Geology and Soils 1. Introduction This section of the Draft EIR analyzes the proposed Project’s potential impacts with regard to geology and soils. The analysis includes an evaluation of the potential geologic hazards associated with fault rupture, seismic ground shaking, liquefaction, landslides, inundation, other geologic conditions, and underlying soils. The analysis is based on the Geotechnical Engineering Evaluation prepared by Geotechnologies Inc., which is provided in Appendix D of this Draft EIR. 2. Environmental Setting a. Existing Conditions (1) Regional Geologic Setting The Project site is located in the northern portion of the Peninsular Ranges Geomorphic Province. The Peninsular Ranges are characterized by northwest-trending blocks of mountain ridges and sediment-floored valleys. The dominant geologic structural features are northwest trending fault zones that fade out to the northwest or terminate at east-trending reverse faults that form the southern margin of the Transverse Ranges. The Los Angeles Basin (Basin) is located at the northern end of the Peninsular Ranges Geomorphic Province. The Basin is bounded to the east and southeast by the Santa Ana Mountains and San Joaquin Hills and to the northwest by the Santa Monica Mountains. Over 22 million years ago, the Basin was a deep marine basin formed by tectonic forces between the North American and Pacific plates. Since that time, over five miles of marine and non-marine sedimentary rock as well as intrusive and extrusive igneous rocks have filled the basin. During the last two million years, defined by the Pleistocene and Holocene epochs, the Basin and surrounding mountain ranges have been uplifted to form City of Los Angeles USC Development Plan SCH.

  • Activity of the Offshore Newport–Inglewood Rose Canyon Fault Zone, Coastal Southern California, from Relocated Microseismicity by Lisa B
    Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America, Vol. 94, No. 2, pp. 747–752, April 2004 Activity of the Offshore Newport–Inglewood Rose Canyon Fault Zone, Coastal Southern California, from Relocated Microseismicity by Lisa B. Grant and Peter M. Shearer Abstract An offshore zone of faulting approximately 10 km from the southern California coast connects the seismically active strike-slip Newport–Inglewood fault zone in the Los Angeles metropolitan region with the active Rose Canyon fault zone in the San Diego area. Relatively little seismicity has been recorded along the off- shore Newport–Inglewood Rose Canyon fault zone, although it has long been sus- pected of being seismogenic. Active low-angle thrust faults and Quaternary folds have been imaged by seismic reflection profiling along the offshore fault zone, raising the question of whether a through-going, active strike-slip fault zone exists. We applied a waveform cross-correlation algorithm to identify clusters of microseis- micity consisting of similar events. Analysis of two clusters along the offshore fault zone shows that they are associated with nearly vertical, north-northwest-striking faults, consistent with an offshore extension of the Newport–Inglewood and Rose Canyon strike-slip fault zones. P-wave polarities from a 1981 event cluster are con- sistent with a right-lateral strike-slip focal mechanism solution. Introduction The Newport–Inglewood fault zone (NIFZ) was first clusters of microearthquakes within the northern and central identified as a significant threat to southern California resi- ONI-RC fault zone to examine the fault structure, minimum dents in 1933 when it generated the M 6.3 Long Beach earth- depth of seismic activity, and source fault mechanism.

  • More Fault Connectivity Is Needed in Seismic Hazard Analysis
    More Fault Connectivity Is Needed in Seismic Hazard Analysis Morgan T. Page*1 ABSTRACT Did the third Uniform California Earthquake Rupture Forecast (UCERF3) go overboard with multifault ruptures? Schwartz (2018) argues that there are too many long ruptures in the model. Here, I address his concern and show that the UCERF3 rupture-length distribution matches empirical data. I also present evidence that, if anything, the UCERF3 model could be improved by adding more connectivity to the fault system. Adding more connectivity would improve model misfits with data, particularly with paleoseismic data on the southern San Andreas fault; make the model less characteristic on the faults; potentially improve aftershock forecasts; and reduce model sensitivity to inadequacies and unknowns in the modeled fault system. Furthermore, I argue that not only was the inclusion of mul- KEY POINTS tifault ruptures an improvement on past practice, as it allows • The UCERF3 model has a rupture-length distribution that the model to include ruptures much like those that have been matches empirical data. observed in the past, but also that there is still further progress • Adding more connectivity to UCERF3 would improve data that can be made in this direction.

  • Multinational Partnership for Research in Earthquake System Science
    Offshore South-Central California for the Community Fault Model Report for SCEC Award #15098 Submitted March 28, 2015 Investigators: Christopher Sorlien I. Project Overview Offshore South-Central California for the Community Fault Model A. Abstract The SCEC Community Fault Model in offshore central California and western Santa Barbara Channel is based on 2D fault traces published in the 1980s. There are abundant multichannel seismic reflection (MCS) data, including 3D data, which image the 3D faults. Notably, the right- lateral Hosgri fault is imaged by 3D MCS data to be gently to moderately E-dipping between about 1 and 3 km depth. Much of the effort was focused on northwest Santa Barbara Channel, because of publications proposing M~8 earthquakes on the North Channel – Pitas Point (Ventura) –San Cayetano fault system, and a publication modeling huge sea floor uplifts and tsunamis. This fault system con- tinues 120 km west of Ventura, to west of Pt. Conception where it interacts with the southern termination of the Hosgri fault. The upper 4 km to 7 km of many strands of this fault system are imaged. There are only two geometric segment boundaries in the offshore faults; one located 10 km west of UCSB, and the other being near Gaviota. One lower strand of the system, the Pitas Point-Ventura fault, is continuous for 75 km. There is no evidence for sea floor rupture of the off- shore 60 km of this fault in the last half million years, including since formation of the Last Gla- cial Maximum unconformity. Instead, deep fault slip has been absorbed by a tilting anticline forelimb.

  • 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.

Dolan Department of Earth Sciences University of Southern California Los Angeles, CA 90089-0740 (213) 740-8599 [email protected] Southern California (SC) Key Words: Neotectonics, Trench Investigations, Paleoseismology, Recurrence Interval Introduction and Rationale for Research: The San Cayetano Fault The San Cayetano fault is a major, north-dipping reverse fault that extends for 40 km along the northern edge of the Ventura Basin and westward into the Sespe Mountains (Figure 1). The fault has been mapped in detail both at the surface and in the subsurface by a number of researchers, including Schlueter (1976), Yeats (1983), Çemen (1977; 1989), Dibblee (1987, 1990a, 1990b, 1991), Rockwell (1988), Yeats et al. (1994), and Huftile and Yeats (1995a; 1995b; 1996). These studies reveal that the San Cayetano fault is separated into two major sections (or 'lobes') by the 4-km-wide, Sespe Creek lateral ramp near the city of Fillmore (Figure 2). The eastern, or ‘Modelo’ lobe (so named because of prominent exposures of the Miocene Modelo Formation mudstone in the hanging wall), reaches the surface near the southern edge of the mountain front (Figure 3). The surface trace of the fault dies out ~1 km east of the city of Piru, near the mouth of Piru Creek. The mechanical connection between the San Cayetano fault and the Santa Susana fault--the major, high-slip-rate north-dipping reverse fault to the east – is structurally complicated, and there does not appear to be a simple, through-going mechanical connection between these two faults (Yeats, 1987; Huftile and Yeats, 1996).
