  • 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.

  • Western States Seismic Policy Council Policy Recommendation 18-3
    WESTERN STATES SEISMIC POLICY COUNCIL POLICY RECOMMENDATION 18-3 Definitions of Recency of Surface Faulting for the Basin and Range Province Policy Recommendation 18-3 WSSPC recommends that each state in the Basin and Range physiographic province (BRP), through consultation with state and federal geological surveys and other earthquake-hazard experts, define scientifically and societally relevant categories for recency of surface faulting (generally earthquake magnitude ≥M 6.5). WSSPC further recommends that in the absence of information to the contrary, all Quaternary faults be considered to have the recency of activity documented in the USGS Quaternary fault and fold database until more adequate data can be developed. Executive Summary Fault recency definitions are limited to the Quaternary because this period of geologic time is considered by the scientific community to be most relevant to paleoseismic studies of earthquake faults (Machette and others, 2004). The recency class of a fault is the youngest class based on the demonstrated age of most recent surface faulting. Latest Pleistocene-Holocene faults are included within the definition of late Quaternary faults, and both latest Pleistocene-Holocene and late Quaternary faults are included in Quaternary faults. Establishment/definition of surface-faulting recency categories are based on the ways that faults are portrayed on geologic maps and on the availability of geologic data in the BRP. Policy makers (owners, regulators, governmental agencies) should consult with state and federal geological surveys and other earthquake-hazard experts in using these recency categories and additional geologic data in developing definitions of hazardous faults to be considered in planning for development or infrastructure projects.

  • About This Toolkit
    ABOUT THIS TOOLKIT As an employer, one of the most important jobs is ensuring that employees are content and challenged. Studies show that the flexibility offered by remote work programs improves employee satisfaction, retention, and even increases productivity. Plain and simple, remote work can make your job more efficient! It’s clear that remote work is much more than a growing trend – it’s a proven management tool that lessens traffic congestion on Bay Area roadways, increases productivity, and helps retain skilled workers. Everyone benefits from a carefully directed remote work program. The best remote work programs begin with clear company policies and guidelines. Other important elements to consider incorporating into your remote work program include: An initial assessment program where employers and employees can determine whether this is a good fit for the employee and their work responsibilities Education and training for employees working remotely to learn how to communicate and collaborate with other employees, and how to manage time effectively while working from home Ongoing, regular communication and check-ins with managers and team members Company-provided equipment, including a laptop, to help your employees be more effective and efficient. Employers may also offer reimbursement for purchased equipment, high-speed internet, or cell phone offerings.

  • Late Quaternary Faulting in the Kaikoura Region, Southeastern Marlborough, New Zealand
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Russell J. Van Dissen for the degree of Master of Science in Geology presented on February 15, 1989. Title: Late Quaternary Faulting in the Kaikoura Region, Southeastern Marlborough, New Zealand Redacted for privacy Abstract approved: Dr. Robert 8.0eats Active faults in the Kaikoura region include the Hope, Kekerengu, and Fidget Faults, and the newly discovered Jordan Thrust, Fyffe, and Kowhai Faults. Ages of faulted alluvial terraces along the Hope Fault and the Jordan Thrust were estimated using radiocarbon-calibrated weathering-rind measurements on graywacke clasts. Within the study area, the Hope Fault is divided, from west to east, into the Kahutara, Mt. Fyffe, and Seaward segments. The Kahutara segment has a relatively constant Holocene right-lateral slip rate of 20-32 mm/yr, and an earthquake recurrence interval of 86 to 600 yrs: based on single-event displacements of 3 to 12 m. The western portion of the Mt. Fyffe segment has a minimum Holocene lateral slip rate of 16 + 5 mm/yr .(southeast side up); the eastern portion has horizontal and vertical slip rates of 4.8+ 2.7 mm/yr and 1.7 + 0.2 mm/yr, respectively (northwest side up). There is no dated evidence for late Quaternary movementon the Seaward segment, and its topographic expression is much more subdued than that of the two western segments. The Jordan Thrust extends northeast from the Hope Fault, west of the Seaward segment. The thrust has horizontal and vertical slip rates of 2.2 + 1.3 mm/yr and 2.1 + 0.5 mm/yr, respectively (northwest side up), and a maximum recurrence interval of 1200 yrs: based on 3 events within the last 3.5 ka.

FISCAL IMPACTS OF RECOMMENDATION Total projected five-year cost of the EasyPass program is $774,453. Funds for calendar year 2021 are available in the Payroll Deduction Trust Fund (Fund 013), and future fiscal years funding is subject to appropriation in those annual budgets. Based upon the current estimated minimum pool of 1,402 passes (one pass per employee), the City will remit payment to AC Transit over the life of the contract as projected here: Contract Period Minimum Annual Cost Total Annual Employee Pool Per Pass Contract Costs1 1/1/2021 - 12/31/2021 1,402 $106.15 $148,826 1/1/2021 - 12/31/2022 1,402 $106.15 $148,826 1/1/2022 - 12/31/2023 1,402 $110.48 $154,891 1/1/2023 - 12/31/2024 1,402 $114.80 $160,955 1/1/2024 - 12/31/2025 1,402 $114.80 $160,955 Total $774,453 1 Calculation of total annual contract costs is based upon AC Transit’s level of service score allocated to every COB worksite (approximately 30 as of October 2020), combined into a weighted average that is then multiplied by minimum pool of participants.
