The location is .5 degree south, and is corrected in this dataset. This cover contains locations of places where greatest horizontal compressive stress (S(Hmax)) orientations have been determined either by observation of well-bore breakouts or where focal mechanism solutions have been determined from earthquakes. Well-bore breakouts are observed from 0 to 1.4 km, whereas earthquakes generally occur deeper. The earthquake focal mechanisms show both reverse and strike-slip faulting. Overall the stress indicators show easterly trending S(Hmax). Purpose: The data was generated to help in understanding the seismotectonic hazards in the vicinity of the lower Wabash Valley. This data complements similar data collected in the vicinity of New Madrid, MO, see US Geological Survey Open-File Report 95-0574, available at http://pubs.usgs.gov/of/1995/0574/
