- Description
- On November 14, 2008, the Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E) Company informed the U.S. Nuclear
Regulatory Commission (NRC) that it had identified a zone of seismicity that may indicate a
previously unknown fault located offshore of the Diablo Canyon Nuclear Power Plant (DCNPP).
The licensee identified the potential fault as a result of a collaborative research program
between PG&E and the U.S. Geologic Survey (USGS)—the PG&E-USGS Cooperative
Research and Development Agreement (CRADA). This program, which focused on increasing
the understanding of tectonics in the region of the DCNPP, included both new geophysical field
studies and the application of advanced seismological techniques to small-magnitude recorded
earthquakes. Shortly after PG&E notified the NRC, it provided the Agency with sets of initial
scientific information related to the hypothesized fault (ML090690193, ML090690218), which
PG&E informally named the “Shoreline Fault.” In discussion with the NRC staff, the licensee
described its preliminary assessment that the hazard potential of the Shoreline Fault is bounded
by the current review ground motion spectrum for the facility.
Based on the initial information provided by PG&E and the USGS, NRC staff undertook a
preliminary review of possible implications of the potential Shoreline Fault to the DCNPP to
determine if an immediate safety concern existed for the facility. The purpose of this letter is to
expand on the Staff’s preliminary review with a more thorough discussion of the data, the
parameters used, and the basis for the Staff’s initial conclusions. The data used in this review
is summarized throughout the text, and analysis results are provided.
