DOWNLOAD EBOOKAwareness of potential seismicity induced by the filling of large reservoirs or by the injection of fluids in boreholes has prompted the Corps of Engineers and others to conduct microseismic monitoring programs at ten damsites and at one injection well. Two other damsites have been monitored by other organizations in cooperation with the Corps of Engineers and one is proposed. These programs were developed to measure and compare ambient seismicity in the environs of the installations and the seismicity present during either reservoir filling or fluid injection.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKA review was made of major reservoirs of the Corps of Engineers with regard to their experiences with induced seismicity. The Corps has 24 large reservoirs, i.e. those with dams 60.96 m (200 ft) in height or greater, and with volumes of 1,233,500,000 cu m (1,000,000 acre-ft) or greater. Thirteen reservoirs were instrumented for monitoring microearthquakes. They range from large to small and are located in aseismic to highly seismic areas. Only one Corps reservoir, Clark Hill in Georgia-South Carolina, has experienced a felt earthquake, but the 21-year interval between impoundment and the occurrence of the earthquake is not typical of reservoir-induced earthquakes and a direct relationship appears improbable.
