Fall Zone – TRTP Project Segment 8A Corridor September 19, 2011
Fall Zone Earthquake-Induced Landslides. The topography along Segment 8A in the Puente and Chino Hills is locally steep and is likely to experience landsliding or slope failures due to earthquakes. Historic earthquake induced ground and slope failures are known to have occurred in the mountains and hills of southern California. Moderate to steep slopes throughout the Puente and Chino Hills could experience slope failures in areas with over-steepened slopes or with bedding planes oriented in the downslope direction. 3.7 GEOLOGY, SOILS, AND PALEONTOLOGY Tehachapi Renewable Transmission Project Page 3.7-37 http://www.chinohills.org/archives/48/PR09-132%20CPUC%20Releases%20Final%20EIR%20and%20ALJ%20Releases%20Proposed%20Decision%20for%20TRTP.pdf
Fall Zone Due to the nature and characteristic of the steel poles if it were to fall, the fall zone will likely be within the diameter of the height of the pole. Contrast to a lattice tower, if a lattice tower were to fall it would collapse within itself as oppose to falling within it’s radius. The brief presentation describes the fall zone of the TRTP project within a populated area. Collapse of lattice tower tend to fall within a narrow range. Note how poles fall within their diameter of the height of the pole.

Fall Radius Between Crossroads Park and Maplewood Dr Pole ID PTM195 Pole ID PTM185
Pole ID PMT195 Lattice tower View facing east, note the lattice tower on the right that the right of way was meant for Due to the topography this pole viewed from Chino Hills Parkway will have a height of 250 feet. There are 5 home within the pole fall zone There are 21 homes within the cable fall zone Closest property within 72 feet of the pole
Pole ID PMT185 Original Lattice tower Compare to the original tower View from Crossroad Parks Crossroads park is within the pole fall zone Height of pole as viewed from Chino Hills Parkway and Carbon Canyon is in excess of 275 feet
