2 EARTHQUAKES AND THEIR HAZARDS IN WESTERN COLORADO: IMPLICATIONS TO SEISMIC DESIGN AND SAFETY by 1 Ivan G. Wng In many parts f the western United States, the lack f significant histrical seismicity has prvided a misleading picture f the actual level f seismic hazards that may exist in a regin. Pale seismic studies in the past tw decades, hwever, have prvided a tl fr deciphering the prehistric earthquake recrd and a mre reliable basis fr assessing the surces, sizes, and frequencies f future damaging events. Western Clrad is generally thught t pssess a lw level f seismic hazard because the histrical earthquake recrd indicates nly lw t mderate seismicity, and knwn late-quaternary faults appear t be relatively few in number with lw activity rates (Kirkham and Rgers, 1981). Hwever, relatively few paleseismic studies have been perfrmed t date. Western Clrad is lcated in a transitin zne between the seismically active Intermuntain seismic belt t the west and the significantly less active cratnic Midcntinent east f the Frnt Range. Based n the brief ISO-year histrical recrd, the largest earthquake knwn t have ccurred in western Clrad, as well as the state as a whle, is the enigmatic 1882 mment magnitude (Mw) 6.6 earthquake (McGuire et al., 1982; Kirkham and Rgers, 1985; 1986; Spence et a/., 1996) (Figure I). This event may have ccurred in the nrthern Frnt Range, althugh its lcatin has been the subject f cnsiderable debate (Spence et al., 1996). The secnd mst significant event knwn t have ccurred is the 1960 Richter magnitude (ML) 5Y2 earthquake near Mntrse (Figure 1) which als ccurred prir t adequate seismgraphic cverage. Significant advancements have been made in ur understanding f earthquakes, their rupture prcess, and assciated tectnic stresses in western Clrad in the past 15 years because f imprved, albeit still sparse, reginal seismgraphic cverage since 1983, and tw aftershck mnitring studies using prtable instruments. Cnsistent with the histrical recrd, pst-1983 earthquake activity is distributed thrughut mst f western Clrad (Figure 1). The apparent mderate t high level f seismicity in the Frnt Range is prbably in part an artifact f the fcused seismic mnitring since 1983 (Figure Vice-President and Manager, Seismic Hazards Branch, Wdward-Clyde Federal Services, th Street, Suite 200, Oakland, CA 94607; phne (510) ; igwngxo@wcc.cm. X:\CR600IE&SHCOL.DOC
3 2). Events rarely appear t be assciated with specific gelgic structures. pssibly due t the lack f dense seismgraphic cverage utside f the Frnt Range. Seismicity in western Clrad is typically characterized by diffuse, small earthquakes (up t abut ML 4 t 5) and swann activity (sequences f events with n mainshck) (Figures 1 and 2). Swanns ften ccur in regins f relatively high heat flw which is generally the case fr the Suthern Rcky Muntains. In the Frnt Range, sme seismicity appears t spatially crrelate with a few Tertiary and Quaternary faults althugh further studies will be needed t establish an assciatin (Btt et af., 1996) (Figure 2). Based n the analyses f several small earthquakes (Wng and Humphrey, 1986; Ely et af., 1986), mst ntably, swanns near Carbndale in 1984 (Gter et af., 1988) and Crested Butte in 1986 (Wng, 1991; Btt and Wng, 1995), and activity in the Frnt Range (Btt et al., 1996), seismicity appears t be the result f the reactivatin f thrust/reverse faults f Laramide age. Such reactivatin appears t be extensinal in nature because the few earthquake fcal mechanisms which are available exhibit nrmal faulting in respnse t a nrtheast-suthwest riented minimum principal stress (Wng, 1986). Earthquakes in western Clrad, as elsewhere in the western U.S., are generally cnfined t the upper 15 t 20 km f the crust, althugh sme events ccur slightly deeper in the Frnt Range. Estimates f earthquake recurrence based n the recrd f histrical and cntemprary seismicity suggest that events f ML 5~, similar t the 1960 earthquake, ccur nly nce abut every 150 t 200 years, and fr ike events, every 1000 years r s. In cntrast, recent gelgic investigatins suggest that sme faults in western Clrad may be capable f generating earthquakes up t Mw 7 (Unruh et al., 1993a, 1993b, 1994, 1996; Nller et af., 1992); althugh these events are prbably rare. Such faults prbably have recurrence intervals f many tens f thusands t pssibly mre than 100,000 years. Results frm deterministic seismic hazard analyses indicate relatively strng ptential earthquake grund shaking at sites near active r ptentially active faults. These grund mtins may be t cnservative fr seismic design purpses, because f the lng recurrence intervals between estimated maximum earthquakes alng these faults. Fr sites distant frm seismgenic faults, the maximum backgrund (randm) earthquake is the dminant cntributr t seismic hazard. The 1882 earthquake is significant t bth deterministic and prbabilistic hazard assessments in the regin because the event has nt been assciated with a specific fault. Thus, it must be cnsidered t be representative f the minimum magnitude backgrund earthquake that culd ccur in western Clrad. Recent site-specific prbabilistic seismic hazard analyses, which incrprate earthquake recurrence, indicate lw t mderately high grund shaking hazard (less than 0.1 t 0.5 g) in western Clrad fr return perids f 500 t 10,000 years. These grund mtins are X :ICR600\E&SHCOL.DOC
4 higher than previusly published values due t ur imprved knwledge f earthquake surces and the inclusin f uncertainties in grund mtin estimatin. Fr example, the recent U.S. Gelgical Survey natinal grund shaking hazard maps indicate 500-year return perid peak grund acceleratins f nly 0.03 t 0.10 g and 2500-year values f 0.08 t O.30g. Thus it wuld seem prudent, given the uncertainties regarding the pssible ccurence f mderate as well as large infrequent earthquakes in western Clrad, t perfnn site-specific seismic hazard evaluatins, particularly fr imprtant and critical facilities.
