The East Bohol faultline is one of the most active faultlines in the Philippines and is located near major cities and establishments. To name just a few, the Golden Sun Condominium is situated one (1) kilometer from the East Bohol faultline while the St. Christopher Elementary School stands three (3) meters from the faultline. Lastly, the Layag Manufacturing Company has located seven (7) km from the fault. Should the occupants of the Golden Sun Condominium expect liquefaction once the earthquake hits? No, because that only happens in coastal communities. Yes, if there is a high water content in the ground. No, because they are too far from the faultline. Yes, if they are too close to the faultline
