HOW LIKELY IS A “BIG ONE” IN UTAH? Prob. [ M 6.5 or greater ] somewhere in the Wasatch Front Area during the next 50 years, assuming EQs are random… P 50 = 34% (annual probability = 1 in 150) Somewhere on one of the Wasatch fault’s central segments during the next 50 yrs, assuming EQs are random… P 50 = 14% (annual probability = 1 in 350) On the Salt Lake City segment of the Wasatch fault, assuming various models… P 50 = 4 – 8 % (annual probability = 1 in 600 to 1 in 1300) (annual probability = 1 in 600 to 1 in 1300)
