“…had epicenters near or beyond the perimeter of the array where it is difficult to obtain high-quality solutions. For the interior of the array, the distribution of epicenters shown here for 1985 is quite similar to the pattern of seismicity observed in the same restricted area since installation of the network in June 1982 (Stover, 1982(Stover, , 1983(Stover, , and 1984.…”

“…20,000 people, former residents of damaged dwellings and residents of undamaged dwellings who were afraid to be inside in the event of strong aftershocks, camped out in city parks and open spaces in the days following the earthquake (LA Times, 1/19/94) The hypocenter and magnitudes of the Northridge earthquake are as follows (U.S. Geological Survey, 1994). Abbreviations are those used in the publication United States Earthquakes (e.g., Stover and Brewer, 1985 The Northridge earthquake occurred as the result of predominantly reverse slip on a northwest-trending, southdipping, fault (Scientists, 1994). The primary fault rupture did not propagate to the surface of the ground.…”

FOREWORDThis report represents an ongoing U.S. Geological Survey effort to transfer accurate earth science information about earthquake hazards along the Wasatch front, Utah to researchers, public officials, design professionals, land-use planners, and emergency managers in an effort to mitigate the effects of earthquake hazards. This report is a preview of the future U.S. Geological Survey professional paper on regional earthquake hazards and risk along the Wasatch front.Currently State and local governments, private institutions, and individuals are implementing earthquake hazards reduction measures in Utah. The success of their efforts will depend, in part, on the availability of accurate earth science information. The timeliness and importance of the multidisciplinary research contained in this report and the need for its utilization has made it imperative to release the information in the form of an open-file report while the process of publishing the professional paper is being completed.The report is organized into 3 volumes. Volume I contains chapters on the tectonic framework and earthquake potential of the Wasatch front area. Volume II contains chapters on the ground shaking hazards and aspects of loss estimation, as well as, chapters on the use of hazards information for urban and regional planning and development. Volume III contains chapters on loss estimation which were unavailable at the time Volume II (Open-File 87-585) was published. Many of the chapters are in draft format and, therefore, the figures follow the text.The information contained in this report is the latest and most accurate information available on earthquake hazards along the Wasatch front and may be used and cited until such time as the Professional Paper on "Regional earthquake hazards and risk along the Wasatch front," is published. The sensitivity of these loss estimates to changes in intensity, vulnerability relationships, and substrate materials are discussed.
