The authors would like to thank Russ Graymer, Steve Walter and Scott Graham for technical assistance during the map construction. We would also like to thank Ray Wilson and Kevin Schmidt for reviews of the map and manuscript.
The map is intended as a tool for regional planning. Any site- specific planning or analysis should be undertaken with the assistance of a qualified geotechnical engineer. This hazard map should not be used as a substitute to the State of California Seismic Hazard Zones map for the same area. (See California Department of Conservation, Division of Mines and Geology, 1999). As previously noted for maps of this type by Wieczorek and others (1985), this map should not be used as a basis to determine the absolute risk from seismically triggered landslides at any locality, as the sole justification for zoning or rezoning any parcel, for detailed design of any lifeline, for site- specific hazard-reduction planning, or for setting or modifying insurance rates.
