This map shows only those earthquakes with epicenters located within the boundaries of North Carolina, even though earthquakes in nearby states may have been felt or may have caused damage in North Carolina.

This earthquake occurred in the Central Virginia Seismic Zone (CVSZ). There is a similar seismic zone in western Virginia called the Giles County Seismic Zone (GCSZ).

The data shown in table 1 are estimates of the most accurate epicenter, magnitude, and intensity of each earthquake, on the basis of historical and current information.

The long cluster of circles stretching from Tennessee through the edge of western North Carolina into northern Georgia is known as the Eastern Tennessee seismic zone, or earthquake zone. Scientists are studying this area to determine why so many earthquakes happen here.

This tool aids building owners, lenders, and engineers in determining the applicable seismic zone. Note that a PML and SRA must be conducted by a licensed civil or structural engineer. Enter Location

Aug 3, 2020 · Defined as the losses that are likely to result from exposure to earthquake hazards, seismic risks are determined not only by hazard levels but also by the amount of people and property that are exposed to the hazards and by how vulnerable people and property are to …

This map is one of a series of seismicity maps produced by the U. S. Geological Survey that show earthquake data of individual states or groups of states at the scale of 1:1,000,000.

The data shown in table 1 are estimates of the most accurate epicenter, magnitude, and intensity of each earthquake, on the basis of historical and current information.
