The probability of a serious earthquake on various faults has been estimated in the 2008 Uniform California Earthquake Rupture Forecast. According to the United States Geological Survey, Southern California experiences nearly 10,000 earthquakes every year. [3] Details on specific faults can be found in the USGS Quaternary Fault and Fold Database.

[ 1 ] It is connected to, and considered to be part of, the same fault zone as the Green Valley fault, which lies just a few miles to the north across the Suisun Bay . [ 2 ]
The fault zone continues south before merging with the Bahía Soledad fault off the coast of Baja California. [7] Slip rate along the fault is estimated at 1.2–1.8 mm (0.047–0.071 in) per year, which makes up 25% of Inner Continental Borderlands slip. [4] [3]
