   Which maps were compiled to show the location of major faults?

   • State (Jennings, 1975; Witkind, 1975; 1975; 1975; 1976; Menges and Pearthree, 1983 #2073), regional (Nakata and others, 1982), and National Howard and others, 1978) maps were compiled to show the location and relative timing of major faults. These map compilations, however, did not provide much supporting data.
