(1) "Areas subject to natural flooding", those portions ofstream valleys subject to one-hundred-year flood events;
(2) "Dams", any dam regulated by the state of Missouri;
(3) "Department", the department of natural resources;
(4) "Geologic hazard assessment", a report that identifiesand describes soil and ground water conditions, karst, drinkingwater supplies, dams, surface water bodies, areas subject tonatural flooding or flooding by dam failure, high seismic riskareas, and landslide areas and any other type of geologicrelated hazard which could threaten public safety. Theassessment shall include geologic and surficial materials mapsat a scale of 1:24,000;
(5) "High seismic risk areas", those areas in the statethat can be expected to experience an intensity of groundshaking equivalent to a Modified Mercalli intensity of VI withinany fifty-year period;
(6) "Karst", those areas where deep weathering of carbonatebedrock has resulted in irregular bedrock and surfacetopography, poorly deferred surface drainage, and rapid surfacewater loss and having the possibility of surface subsidence; and
(7) "Landslide areas", those areas subject to slopemovement that could endanger structures.
