[1] This is the estimated largest magnitude earthquake expected
at a reasonable level of probability. The main shock can be
expected to be followed by large aftershocks over a period of
weeks or longer. Each large aftershock would be capable of
producing additional significant damage and hampering disaster
assistance operations.

These earthquake scenarios represent the largest magnitude events
estimated on the basis of a variety of geologic assumptions. The
appropriateness of these assumptions depends on the intent of the
analysis and the state of geologic knowledge. Therefore, the resulting
estimates may not be appropriate for other purposes, such as the
development of seismic design criteria for a specific site. The
development of such criteria commonly requires detailed analyses of
the site and its immediate geologic environment beyond the scope of
