Geosphere

Handling

Explanation of how the FEP is treated

Excavation/operation: Not relevant. Covered by construction-induced reactivation. Temperate: Neglected because of insignificant convergence of deposition holes at expected rock stresses. Periglacial: Neglected because of insignificant convergence of deposition holes at expected rock stresses. Glacial: Neglected because of insignificant convergence of deposition holes at expected rock stresses. Earthquakes: Not relevant
