DETAILED EXPLAINATION

Special Flood Hazard:
YES:
NO:
NOT MAPPED:
(Zone "A" or "V")
The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has compiled and delineated flood maps for every county in every State. These maps designate areas of Special Flood Hazards as well as those areas not located in a designated Flood Zone.

Area of Potential Flooding:
YES:
NO:
NOT MAPPED:
(Dam Inundation Map)
Sec. 8589.5 Civil Code
In complying with this Code and in accordance with the Safety Element of their General Plan, The County of San Diego Office of Disaster Preparedness has prepared a "General Dam Plan" for San Diego County. There is a separate plan for each dam showing area inundated, inhabited areas, facilities affected, responsible parties, command posts, evacuation routes and specific actions to be taken. Per the County of San Diego there are approximately 26 major dams in the San Diego County. Of these approximately 23 would, in the event of failure, effect downstream areas within portions of the County.

Very High Fire Severity Zone:
YES:
NO:
NOT MAPPED:
The California State Board of Forestry and Fire Prevention has identified areas in the State as being located in various Severity Zones. (Very High, High, Medium and Low) This information is based on statewide criteria and statistics compiled by the Department and based on the expected severity of fire in the area. Information used in determining the Severity Zone includes but is not limited to fuel loading, timber, grazing and fire weather conditions. A property located in an area designated as Very High Fire Severity may be subject to special fire prevention/suppression requirements such as vegetation management and establishment of fire clearance around structures. Construction requirements may include the use of fire resistant building materials and protection of structure projections. Pursuant to Section 51178-51189 of the Code the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection has issued maps delineating Fire Severity Zones.

Wildland Fire Zone:
YES:
NO:
NOT MAPPED:
(State Fire Responsibility area SRA) The California State Board of Forestry, in accordance with Sections 4142 and 4125 of the Public Resource Code has classified a State Fire Responsibility Area (SRA) as lands exclusive of Cities and Federal Land regardless of ownership, as areas in which primary financial responsibility for preventing and suppressing fires is that of the State. A property located in a designated State Fire Responsibility Area may be subject to fire mitigation measures as set forth in Section 4291 of the Public Resource Code. This may impact on or limit construction and remodeling of improvements and landscaping. Pursuant to Section 4125 the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection has issued maps delineating State Fire Responsibility Areas.

Earthquake Fault Zone:
YES:
NO:
NOT MAPPED:
(Alquist Priolo)
Earthquake Fault Zones are delineated and mapped by the California State Geologist, California Division of Mines and Geology as part of the Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Fault Zoning Act (Section 2622 of the Public Resources Code
At the present time the State Geologist has not mapped San Diego County, however, the County of San Diego has mapped the area and the City of San Diego has mapped all areas within City Limits.
In San Diego County only "The Rose Canyon Fault", the "Elsinore Fault" and a portion of the Downtown Area of the City of San Diego are considered to be in a "Special Study Earthquake Fault Zone".
The closest major active faults, and therefore the most likely to affect San Diego with ground shaking, are the Elsinore fault, located to the northeast, and the Coronado Banks fault, located offshore approximately 25 miles to the Southwest. In addition the Rose Canyon Fault, a potentially active fault, is located west. A major earthquake along one of these faults, or in the San Jacinto fault zone located about 52 miles northeast.
Seismic Hazard Zones:
YES:
NO:
NOT MAPPED:
Local Fault Zone:
At the present time the only areas in San Diego County mapped by the State Geologist are: Agua Caliente Springs, Arroyo, Julian, Fonts Point, Earthquake Valley, Carrizo Mtn., Clark Lake, Collins Valley, Borrego, La Jolla, Mesa Grande, Monument Peak and Pala.
In complying with this Code and in accordance with the Safety Element of their General Plan, The County of San Diego has delineated and mapped Locally Identified Seismic Hazard Zones.
The City of San Diego, State of California adopted City Council Resolution 211594, to comply with California regulations requiring Cities to adopt a Seismic Safety Element within their General Plan. These Maps were originally issued in 1974 and updated in 1983 and 1995 to reflect the latest interpretation of geologic features.
Fault Zones represent possible limits within which faults could be located. Area concept required due to possible plotting error from different scale or source maps and accuracy of plots and overlay. All Fault locations are based on the best interpretation of available date at the time of compilation.
Landslide Zone:
YES:
NO:
NOT MAPPED:
Per the State of California Department of Mines and Geology Map the property is located in an area that is considered to be susceptible to Landslides.

OTHER:
YES:
NO:
NOT MAPPED:

Liquefaction Zone:
YES:
NO:
NOT MAPPED:

Tsunami Inundation: 
YES:
NO:
NOT MAPPED:
The State of California requires that each local jurisdiction address the problem of tsunami and seiches in its Safety Element. Since the coastline of San Diego is now entirely within incorporated cities or under state or federal jurisdiction the County only coordinates disaster response. The cities of Coronado and Imperial Beach and the beach communities in the City of Dan Diego are potentially subject to major damage from tsunamis.
Hazard Categories are delineated and mapped by State of California Department of Mines and Geology and by some of the Cities in the County and by the County of San Diego in their Seismic Safety element. Hazard Categories represent possible limits within which Geologic Hazards such as Landslides, Slide Prone Formation, Liquefaction or High Rates of Erosion could be located. The Hazard Zones describe the geologic feature or condition suspected at the site. Area concept required due to possible plotting error from different scale or source maps and accuracy of plots and overlay. All Geologic Hazard locations are based on the best interpretation of available date at the time of compilation.
If it is determined that any portion of the subject property is located within a Hazard Category or Risk Zone it may be subject to State, County or City requirements necessitating geologic or Engineering study prior to any new construction, any reconstruction or any additional construction. This report does not address any State, County or City requirements or any Building Codes. It is provided solely as information relates to location of the subject property with respect to Earthquake Fault Zones. If additional information regarding jurisdictional requirements, compliance with building codes or slope stability is desired it is recommended that a Geotechnical Consultant be contacted. It should be noted that the Hazard Category and Risk Zone are not to be construed as depicting slope stability.
