stablish whether there is a potential for future surface deformation at the site. If the potential for future surface deformation exists, the reviewer evaluates the information in the application that demonstrates the potential effects of surface deformation are within the design basis of the facility. The reviewer confirms that information provided by the applicant is documented through appropriate references to relevant published and unpublished materials. Illustrative materials provided to document site characteristics should include, but are not necessarily limited to, structural, tectonic, physiographic, topographic, geologic, gravity, and magnetic maps; geologic cross-sections showing soil horizons, stratigraphy, lithology, and structure; geologic maps of trenches and test pits; seismic reflection or refraction and other geophysical survey profiles; soil and core boring logs; geophysical borehole logs; aerial photographs; Light Detection And Ranging (LiDAR) and satellite imagery. Some sites might require maps illustrating areas of subsidence, karst or other dissolution features, mechanically weak zones of soil and rock, paleoliquefaction features, irregular weathering conditions and weathering depths, landslide potential, locations of oil and gas wells, faults, and joints. Maps should include superimposed plot plans of site facilities, site boundaries, and the relationship of all Seismic Category I facilities to subsurface geologic features. Locations of all site structures, borings, trenches, test pits, seismic reflection and refraction and other geophysical data collection profiles, and geologic cross-sections should also be included on plot plans. The geologic terminology used should conform to that found in standard references.
