註釋This 81-page report presents the results of a study of the Hurricane fault in Utah, and is part of a more extensive National Earthquake Hazards Reduction Program-funded cooperative study by the Utah Geological Survey (UGS) and Arizona Geological Survey (AZGS) of the Hurricane fault in Utah and Arizona. The Hurricane fault is one of the longest and most active of several large, late Cenozoic, west-dipping normal faults within the structural and seismic transition between the Colorado Plateau and Basin and Range physiographic provinces. Assessing the seismic hazard of the Hurricane fault is important because southwestern Utah is experiencing a now decades-long construction and population boom. Results of the AZGS study of the Hurricane fault in Arizona are reported elsewhere.
