AEG-CCGO joint meeting and CCGO Fundraiser & Earthquake History Preserved in Tyson Lagoon: A New Environmental Wetland Center that Happens to be Right on the Hayward Fault! This month's dinner meeting will not be held, in light of the AEG National Meeting in Vail, Colorado. Realism in volcano hazard zonation: Does geo-engineering help provide more accurate assessment?
St. Francis Dam was a concrete gravity dam, built from 1924 to 1926 to serve Los Angeles's growing water needs. It catastrophically failed in 1928 due to a defective soil foundation, triggering a flood that claimed the lives of at least 431 people. The collapse of the dam is considered to be one of the worst American civil engineering disasters of the 20th century and remains the second-greatest loss of life in California's history, after the 1906 San Francisco earthquake and fire.The field trip will feature a short hike to the dam site and a presentation by Prof. Emeritus Jeffrey Knott, CSUF.
