Public Response To Earthquake Hazard Information, Risa Palm Jan 1981

Public Response To Earthquake Hazard Information, Risa Palm

Geosciences Faculty Publications

Consumer protection legislation has been based on the assumptions that people prefer to avoid risks and that they make rational decisions given a bounded field of information. Mandated disclosure of information about environmental hazards in limited areas should therefore result in the avoidance of such areas by homebuyers or the adoption of mitigation measures subsequent to the move. The response of California homebuyers to mandated disclosure of the location of special studies zones or surface fault rupture districts was negligible, both because of the failure of the law to specify rigorous disclosure procedures and also because the law was based …

The report is divided into four sections: (1) Introduction and background; (2) Analysis of Linkage Study with the Utah Cancer Registry and Rocky Mountain Cancer Data System; (3) Evaluation of Tracing a Sample of the Original Utah, Nevada, and Arizona Study Groups; and (4) Options for Future Studies.


Hydrology Of The Ferron Sandstone Aquifer And Effects Of Proposed Surface-Coal Mining In Castle Valley, Utah, Gregory C. Lines, Daniel J. Morrissey, Thomas A. Ryer, Richard H. Fuller, U.S. Geological Survey Jan 1981

Hydrology Of The Ferron Sandstone Aquifer And Effects Of Proposed Surface-Coal Mining In Castle Valley, Utah, Gregory C. Lines, Daniel J. Morrissey, Thomas A. Ryer, Richard H. Fuller, U.S. Geological Survey

All U.S. Government Documents (Utah Regional Depository)

Coal in the Ferron Sandstone Member of the Mancos Shale of Cretaceous age has traditionally been mined by underground techniques in the Emery Coal Field in the southern end of Castle Valley in east-central Utah. However, approximately 99 million tons are recoverable by surface mining. Ground water in the Ferron is the sole source of supply for the town of Emery, but the aquifer is essentially untapped outside the Emery area. The Ferron Sandstone Member crops out along the eastern edge of Castle Valley and generally dips 2" to 10" to the northwest beneath the surface. Sandstones in the Ferron …
