    4.4 Geology, Soils, and Seismicity 4.4 Geology, Soils, and Seismicity This section presents an analysis of potential geology, soils, and seismicity impacts that would result from implementation of the Los Vaqueros Reservoir Expansion Project. The section includes a description of the affected environment, the associated regulatory framework (including all applicable geology, soils, and seismicity policies), the methodology, and the impact assessment. Mitigation measures are identified, where necessary, to avoid or reduce potential impacts. 4.4.1 Affected Environment Regulatory Setting The following federal, state, and local regulations relevant to geology, soils, and seismicity are applicable to the proposed project. Federal The Dam Safety and Security Act of 2002 (Public Law 107-310) The Dam Safety and Security Act of 2002 amends the National Dam Safety Program Act of 1996 (Public Law 104-303, Section 215), which amends the National Dam Inspection Act of 1972 (Public Law 92-367). The purpose of these acts is to reduce the risks to life and property from dam failure in the United States through the establishment and maintenance of a national dam safety program that integrates the expertise and resources of the federal and non-federal communities to achieve national dam safety hazard reduction. The acts established: • A national dam inventory • A national inspection program by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers with reports to the appropriate state and federal agencies • The Federal Interagency Committee on Dam Safety chaired by the Director of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) • A dam safety training program • Assistance for state dam safety programs State Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Fault Zoning Act The Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Fault Zoning Act (formerly the Alquist-Priolo Special Studies Zone Act), signed into law in December 1972, requires the delineation of fault rupture zones along active faults in California.

Photocredit: Adam Backlin (USGS). U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Carlsbad Fish and Wildlife Office Carlsbad, California July 13, 2012 2012 5-year Review for mountain yellow-legged frog 5-YEAR REVIEW mountain yellow-legged frog (Rana muscosa) Southern California Distinct Population Segment I. GENERAL INFORMATION Purpose of 5-year Reviews: The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) is required by section 4(c)(2) of the Endangered Species Act (Act) to conduct a status review of each listed species at least once every 5 years. The purpose of a 5-year review is to evaluate whether or not the species’ status has changed since it was listed (or since the most recent 5-year review). Based on the 5-year review, we recommend whether the species should be removed from the list of endangered and threatened species, be changed in status from endangered to threatened, or be changed in status from threatened to endangered. Our original listing of a species as endangered or threatened is based on the existence of threats attributable to one or more of the five threat factors described in section 4(a)(1) of the Act, and we must consider these same five factors in any subsequent consideration of reclassification or delisting of a species. In the 5-year review, we consider the best available scientific and commercial data on the species, and focus on new information available since the species was listed or last reviewed.
