Beschreibung:
Seismic activity in the greater New York City area is concentrated along several northeast-trending faults of which the Ramapo fault appears to be the most active. Three nuclear power plants at Indian Point, New York, are situated close to the Ramapo fault. For a reactor site in use for 40 years, the probability that the site will experience an intensity equal to or in excess of the design (safe shutdown) earthquake is estimated to be about 5 to 11 percent.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Aggarwal, Y P -- Sykes, L R -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1978 Apr 28;200(4340):425-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17757300" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
