Poorly resolved sources of seismicity Undefined faults
Goals: Complete SSC within 200-mi Site Region Confirm past results about contribution of Background source PG&E DCPP SSHAC Study 23 Background source Approach: Use historical seismicity rate, G-R distribution Be conservative – include seismicity associated with on fault sources Consider alternative characterizations: UCERF2 gridded seismicity UCERF3 gridded seismicity PG&E catalog, areal zonation Felser catalog, areal zonation PG&E DCPP SSHAC Study 24
