Geologic and Geotechnical Review - CSA serves as the City
or Town Geologist/Geotechnical Consultant for numerous municipalities
in the San Francisco Bay and Los Angeles Metropolitan areas. In
this capacity, we are responsible for peer review of engineering
geologic and geotechnical investigations of proposed hillside residential
developments conducted within these areas. In addition, the Counties
of San Mateo, Santa Clara, Santa Cruz and Monterey have retained
CSA on matters pertaining to unstable slopes and their potential
impacts on public works. We also perform specialized landslide and
earthquake hazard investigations and reviews for departments and
agencies of the Counties of Santa Clara and Santa Cruz. Following
the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake, we performed hundreds of rapid
geologic hazard assessments for post-earthquake reconstruction applications
for the County of Santa Cruz. Likewise, we have performed damage
assessments for several hillside communities following extreme rain
seasons associated with El Nino events.
