APPROACH
ThegeneralprocesstodeterminetheSSEatasiteincludes:
1.Site-andregion-specificgeological,seismological,geophysical,andgeotechnicalinvestigationsand
2.Aprobabilisticseismichazardassessment.
CENTRALANDEASTERNUNITEDSTATES
TheCEUSisconsideredtobethatpartoftheUnitedStateseastoftheRockyMountainfront,oreastofLongitude105West(Refs.4,5).TodeterminetheSSEintheCEUS,anacceptedPSHAmethodologywitharangeofcrediblealternativeinputinterpretationsshouldbeused.ForsitesintheCEUS,theseismichazardmethods,thedatadeveloped,andseismicsourcesidentifiedbyLawrenceLivermoreNationalLaboratory(LLNL)(Refs.4-6)andtheElectricPowerResearchInstitute(EPRI)(Ref.7)havebeenreviewedandacceptedbythestaff.TheLLNLandEPRIstudiesdevelopeddatabasesandscientificinterpretationsofavailableinformationanddeterminedseismicsourcesandsourcecharacterizationsfortheCEUS(e.g.,earthquakeoccurrencerates,estimatesofmaximummagnitude).
IntheCEUS,characterizationofseismicsourcesismoreproblematicthanintheactiveplate-marginregionbecausethereisgenerallynoclearassociationbetweenseismicityandknowntectonicstructuresornear-surfacegeology.Ingeneral,theobservedgeologicstructuresweregeneratedinresponsetotectonicforcesthatnolongerexistandhavelittleornocorrelationwithcurrenttectonicforces.Therefore,itisimportanttoaccountforthisuncertaintybytheuseofmultiplealternativemodels.
TheidentificationofseismicsourcesandreasonablealternativesintheCEUSconsidershypothesespresentlyadvocatedfortheoccurrenceofearthquakesintheCEUS(forexample,thereactivationoffavorablyorientedzonesofweaknessorthelocalamplificationandreleaseofstressesconcentratedaroundageologicstructure).IntectonicallyactiveareasoftheCEUS,suchastheNewMadridSeismicZone,wheregeological,seismological,andgeophysicalevidencesuggestthenatureofthesourcesthatgeneratetheearthquakes,itmaybemoreappropriatetoevaluatethoseseismicsourcesbyusingproceduressimilartothosenormallyappliedintheWesternUnitedStates.
