Geologic and Seismic Studies

Geologic studies consider earthquakes, landslides, liquefaction, tsunamis, and groundshaking and how these phenomena may affect a parcel of land or development program. Property owners and planning officials need to understand how these geological hazards constrain the use of a site.
