Analyze the stream floodplain and detail elements of erosion that could impact the surface development.

Write a report that details elements of the surface landscape and larger scale tectonics for the project site. You will be asked to properly analyze a topographic
map in addition to historical data on regional earthquakes and volcanoes. You must explain all landscape features and describe how each element formed.

 Identify any landscape features present on the topographic map that directly resulted from stream processes. Discuss how each feature formed over
time.
 Analyze the stream floodplain and detail elements of erosion that could impact the surface development. Which areas of the proposed development
might be at risk? Why?
 Detail tectonic elements present in the surface landscape using the topographic map.
 Using the historical data, what tectonic features represent potential hazards in the area? Discuss the data relative to your conclusions.
 How could the tectonic features affect the proposed development? How did you draw your conclusions?
