The Yorba Linda Fault or Yorba Linda Trend is a Fault system that extends from North East Yorba Linda, California to the South Eastern portion of Chino Hills, California. The fault was discovered in the late 1990s and is known to have caused the MW5.4 2008 Chino Hills earthquake. The fault is believed to produce a MW6.0 earthquake at most.
Famous quotes containing the word fault:
“Truly it is an evil to be full of faults; but it is a still greater evil to be full of them and to be unwilling to recognize them, since that is to add the further fault of a voluntary illusion.”
—Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)
