This digital database contains the faults shown on the Fault Activity Map of California and Adjacent Areas by Charles W. Jennings
published in 1994. The map shows the locations of known faults that can be portrayed at 1:750,000 scale and indicates the
latest age when displacements took place according to available data. The displacements may have been associated with earthquakes
or may have been the result of gradual creep along the fault surface. The faults are separated into five categories: historic,
Holocene, late Quaternary, Quaternary, and pre-Quaternary. Many faults in Nevada and Baja California shown on the published
map are not in this digital database. The late Cenozoic faults in the Foothills Fault Zone are included with the pre-Quaternary
faults.
