		California State Senator Jack O'Connell, longtime advocate of highway safety introduced Senate Concurrent Resolution 52--declaring, henceforth and forever, the intersection of Highways 41 and 46 the James Dean Memorial Junction in honor of James Dean-and marking it as the location of his tragic death.
		Cholame is cut in two by a slim ribbon of highway--California 46 which runs westward from just above Bakersfield to Paso Robles where it joins Highway 101 and farther west to the sea.
		California State Senator Jack O'Connell, longtime advocate of highway safety, introduced and has seen passed, a formal resolution--SCR 52--declaring, henceforth and forever, the intersection of Highways 41 and 46 the James Dean Memorial Junction in honor of James Dean and marking it as the location of his tragic death.

	12.09.2004 - Deep tremors under San Andreas Fault could portend earthquakes
		The Cholame area showing some of the geophysical instrument networks (colored symbols) concentrated around the town of Parkfield, which is located near the center of the instrument cluster.
		Cholame is just down the road from Parkfield, a city that bills itself as the "Earthquake Capital of the World" because of some 20 years of attention from seismologists, who have heavily instrumented the fault that cuts through the city in order to understand what triggers earthquakes.
		Cholame also is thought to be the origin of the last big quake to hit southern California, the magnitude 8 Fort Tejon quake of 1857, when the San Andreas ruptured south from Cholame for about 200 miles.

	California @ WestCoastRoads - Southbound Interstate 5 in Kern County
		Although California 58 is a two-lane, rural highway between Interstate 5 and California 43, it greets suburbia quickly thereafter as it enters the outskirts of the Bakersfield metropolitan area, especially in Greenacres.
		California 119 follows the original alignment of U.S. 399 between California 99 south of Bakersfield and California 33 in Taft.
		This "Y"-shaped design is commonly found throughout Southern California, Arizona, and Nevada, and these larger models interconnect the 500 kilovolt lines between the hydroelectrical facilities along the Colorado River, the fossil fuel plants in the Four Corners region in Arizona, and other electricity generation stations scattered about the Southwest.

		In 1995, the Working Group on California Earthquake Probabilities estimated a recurrence of a major quake in the Cholame segment of the Fault area to be about 140 years, give or take several decades.
		Cholame is thirty miles east of Paso Robles.
		The rugged territory near Cholame is still sparsely populated, but seismologists fear that another quake in the Cholame region could trigger a larger disaster.

		Their forecast assumed (1) the slip was 3–4 m in 1857 and characteristic of the segment; (2) a slip rate of 3.4 cm/yr; and (3) full strain release in earthquakes.
		Data are too sparse and ambiguous to resolve details of the 1857 slip for this segment but it is distinctly less than the 9 m of the Carrizo Plain and more than the 3–4 m previously estimated.
		Although the probability of an M ≥7 Cholame event seems less than that suggested by a 3.5-m characteristic earthquake model, it remains among the highest in the state.

	James Dean's grave (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Dean was driving west on U.S. Highway 466 (later California State Route 46) near Cholame, California when a 1950 Ford Tudor driven from the opposite direction by 23-year-old Cal Poly student Donald Turnupseed attempted to take the fork onto California State Route 41 and crossed into Dean's lane without seeing him.
		According to a story in the October 1, 2005 edition of the Los Angeles Times, California Highway Patrol officer Ron Nelson and his partner had been finishing a coffee break in Paso Robles when they were called to the scene of the accident, where they saw a heavily-breathing Dean being placed into an ambulance.
		In September 2005, the intersection of Highways 41 and 46 in Cholame (San Luis Obispo county) was dedicated as the James Dean Memorial Highway as part of the commemoration of the 50th anniversary of his death.

		The objective of this project is to evaluate the earthquake potential of the San Joaquin Hills (SJH) and environs in densely populated Orange County, California.
		To evaluate seismic hazard in California, it is essential to understand the behavior and earthquake potential of the San Andreas fault.
		Despite the tectonic complexity of southern California and the large number of active faults, the San Andreas fault dominates seismic hazard assessments because of its high moment release rate and documented historic and prehistoric frequency of generating large magnitude earthquakes (1).

		Paleoseismic data will permit us to infer the timing of previous earthquakes, and by correlation with events inferred for the Carrizo and Mojave segments we may determine rupture extent in events along the SAF and whether or not the ruptures have characteristic extent and slip distributions.
		Grant and Donnellan, 1994 recovered original monuments from that survey spanning the SAF in the Carrizo Plain near Wallace Creek and determined that the 1857 slip along the SAF between those monuments was 11 ± 2.5 m.

		The town of Cholame is thought to have been the origin of the magnitude 8 Fort Tejon Earthquake of 1857.
		This was the last big quake to hit southern California, and some seismologists think the area is due for another, since the average time between big quakes is 140 years.
		Although the study was no longer running at the time, a moderate, magnitude 6 earthquake erupted on Sept. 28, 2004, outside the city of Parkfield, which is 15 miles northwest of Cholame.
