SEISMICITY AND TITLE II SITES

These drawings were prepared by James C. Case for a presentation to Nuclear Regulatory Commission staff members on the Chicken Springs Fault system given on May 21, 1996 at the Sweetwater Uranium Project. At this meeting Jim Case presented four (4) alternatives for the Chicken Springs Fault System. These alternatives are as follows:
  1. Option A: Analysis of Active Faults by Chicken Springs
    • Postulated Magnitude: 6.3
  2. Option B: Analysis of Northern Active Fault Segments
    • Postulated Magnitude: 6.5
  3. Option C: Analysis of Long Segments (Age Uncertain)
    • Postulated Magnitude: 6.7
  4. Option D: Analysis of All Active Fault Segments
    • Postulated Magnitude: 6.9
