This document discusses active faults and earthquake source zones in the Philippines. It defines an active fault as one that has moved within the last 10,000 years. The three types of faults are described as normal, thrust/reverse, and strike-slip. Some of the most destructive earthquakes in Philippine history are noted, including the 1990 Luzon earthquake. The Philippine Fault Zone and Valley Fault System are identified as two of the most important active faults. Trenches are also described as earthquake generators where tectonic plates are subducting. The potential impacts of worst case earthquakes on the West Valley Fault and Manila Trench impacting Metro Manila are presented.
