1. THE MAGNITUDE 6.0 NAPA, CA EARTHQUAKE 3:20 AM, AUGUST 24, 2014 Dr. Walter Hays US Geological Survey (Retired) Global Alliance for Disaster Reduction

2. The M6.0 Napa earthquake was the strongest in the San Francisco Bay area since the M6.9 1989 Loma Prieta quake, BUT it only had about 1/30 th of Loma Prieta’s energy release

3. The Bay Area is prone to large earthquakes because it straddles the boundary between two major tectonic plates — the North American and Pacific plates.

6. NORTHERN CALIFORNIA SCENARIO (developed in 2008) BASED ON INTEGRATED KNOWLEDGE FROM MONITORING, RESEACH, AND POSTEARTHQUAKE STUDIES SINCE APRIL 1906

10. Much of the stress release happens on the San Andreas fault, but some of it is relieved by the Hayward fault and other smaller parallel faults.

11. Because of its location in the densely populated Bay area of 7 million people, a Hayward fault quake is likely to cause worse societal impacts than a San Andreas quake and be one of the nation's largest natural disasters.

14. Damage will be extensive to buildings and infrastructure. The region's transportation infrastructure and water delivery systems are expected to take a major hit in a M7.0 or greater earthquake.

15. A M7.0 earthquake on the Hayward fault, WHICH HAS NOT YET HAPPENED, will cause an estimated $210 billion dollars in damage.

16. BAD NEWS FOR CALIFORNIANS: The Napa quake occurred on a a relatively unknown and unmonitored small fault segment, (of which there are hundreds) not the well known and much longer San Andreas and Hayward fault zones

31. DAMAGE TO HIGHWAY 12: AUGUST 24 NAPA VALLEY EARTHQUAKE

33. BURNED OUT MOBILE HOME: AUGUST 24 NAPA VALLEY EARTHQUAKE

34. The quake's timing was also bad for Napa Valley's famed vineyards, where winemakers are about one month away from harvesting the 2014 crop.

35. DAMAGE TO WINE BARRELS: AUGUST 24 NAPA VALLEY EARTHQUAKE

36. Thousands of bottles of wine were broken and hundreds of barrels of wine in storage were toppled.

37. AFTERSHOCKS: Buildings that were damaged or overstressed by the M6.0 quake may be more susceptible to collapse from its aftershocks.
