Comments: The trilateration array consists solely of one measurement in 1987 between rod points RD15 and RD03 in the PITT RANCH level line. This level line was established by the U.S. Geological Survey as a tilt array on the southwest side of the San Andreas faul t, three miles WNW of Parkfield. UCSB set an additional bench mark between each of the USGS bench marks in June 1984. All bench marks are Class B rod marks driven to refusal and capped with a stainless steel nipple.
