Geology

Ingram Creek eroded from the following formations; the Franciscan Assemblage, Mesozoic ultrabasic intrusive rocks, and marine sediments of Upper Cretaceous, Paleocene and Eocene age.C. Michael Hogan, Marc Papineau, Ballard George, et al., Environmental Assessment for the Proposed Residential and Commercial Development at the Westley Interchange, Earth Metrics Inc., Report 10529C, California State Environmental Clearinghouse, Sacramento, Ca., July, 1990 Marine sediments have been leached by groundwater, causing an elevated concentration of brine in the groundwater at depths of approximately 600 feet.
