Brevard Fault Zone in its extent from Montgomery, Alabama to the North-Carolina-Virginia border. The Brevard Fault Zone is a 700-km [1] long and several km-wide thrust fault that extends from the North Carolina-Virginia border, runs through the north metro Atlanta area, and ends near Montgomery, Alabama.
The New Madrid seismic zone (NMSZ), sometimes called the New Madrid fault line (or fault zone or fault system), is a major seismic zone and a prolific source of intraplate earthquakes (earthquakes within a tectonic plate) in the Southern and Midwestern United States, stretching to the southwest from New Madrid, Missouri.

South Carolina earthquakes occur with the greatest frequency along the central coastline of the state, in the Charleston area. South Carolina is the most seismically active state on the east coast. [1] At 7.3 magnitude, the Charleston earthquake of 1886 was the largest quake to ever hit the Eastern United States. This earthquake killed at least ...
The Atlantic Seaboard Fall Line, or Fall Zone, is a 900-mile (1,400 km) escarpment where the Piedmont and Atlantic coastal plain meet in the eastern United States. [2] Much of the Atlantic Seaboard fall line passes through areas where no evidence of faulting is present.
Primarily from the United States Government Printing Office Style Manual. [1] State names usually signify only parts of each listed state, unless otherwise indicated. Based on the BLM manual's 1973 publication date, and the reference to Clarke's Spheroid of 1866 in section 2-82, coordinates appear to be in the NAD27 datum.
In Michigan, most fault lines that were potentially visible long ago are now buried deep under sedimentary deposits, so we often don't know they exist until an earthquake happens along them.For ...
