Small Earthquake Swarm
A swarm of small earthquakes (magnitudes less than 2) occurred at a depth of 6-7 km (about 4 miles) beneath Highway 203 in Mammoth Lakes, California midway between the water treatment plant and the Highway 395-203 junction, June 27, 2014.
The swarm began at 4:50 AM and continued with sporadic activity through the morning hours. As of 1:50 PM it appears to have largely died away. We detected no ground deformation associated with this activity, and it poses no immediate hazard.
