Jeremy Miller reports on the Hayward Fault, which underlies large, densely populated swaths of Northern California’s East Bay—and which could rupture soon.

But new seismic research indicates that the Hayward and its neighboring fault, the Calaveras, might be connected underground to make them, in effect, a single and even more dangerous fault.

The earthquake that rattled the Bay Area on Thursday is another reminder of the power and danger of the Hayward Fault, which runs below the populous East Bay.
