Peak Ground Acceleration, Saddle Mountain Earthquake Scenario <br /> <br />NEHRP Soil Maps <br />NEHRP soil types define the locations that will be significantly impacted by an earthquake. NEHRP Soils <br />B and C typically can sustain low-magnitude ground shaking without much effect. The areas that are most <br />commonly affected by ground shaking have NEHRP Soils D, E and F. Figure 10-7 shows NEHRP soil <br />classifications in the county.
