The document covers key hazard types including earthquakes, surface rupture, ground shaking, liquefaction, landslides and slope instability, and tsunamis, together with methods for managing uncertainties. It details seismic data resources, capable faulting evaluation, and PSHA input modeling, then addresses PSHA calculations and site response analyses. It also specifies outputs such as hazard curves, spectra, disaggregation, and time histories, and includes guidance for induced seismicity, terminology, and
