As noted by @AHajiSoltani and @JMAltekruse, a number of fault traces in the WUS geodetic models/inputs are inconsistent with those in the geologic model. This was due to the incorporation of changes to the geologic model after handing it off the to the geodetic modelers. The changes are small and would not have significantly impacted the slip rates computed by the geodetic modelers and therefore are considered to have little impact on hazard.

Fault traces to be updated:

  • Santa Rosa (1508ab)
  • Winter Rim (831abc)
  • Kawich-Hot Creek Ranges (1355)
  • Railroad Valley (1380abc)
  • Wassuk Range (1300)
  • White River Valley (1398)
  • Aubrey (995)
  • Emigrant (642ab)
  • Northern Sangre de Cristo (2321)
  • San Andreas Mountains (2053abc)
  • Squaw Creek (632)
  • Teton (768abcdef)
  • Wasatch – Provo (2351g)
  • Wasatch – Weber (2351e)
  • West Valley (2386)

With the exception of West Valley, the geodetic input files have been updated with traces from the geologic model. The West Valley trace in the geologic model reflected a loss of precision and was reverted to an earlier (that was in the geodetic models).
