*In the southern part of DBF, the sections DF_1 to BF_2 are ranked **class 3**, i.e. assumed or admitted to be active but without direct evidence. Quaternary slip rate at fault sections north of DF_3 is assumed very low (<0.01 mm/y). Southern sections may later be ranked class 1 (demonstrably active) when new earthquake data (better location, focal mechanism) bring clear evidence. | *In the southern part of DBF, the sections DF_1 to BF_2 are ranked **class 3**, i.e. assumed or admitted to be active but without direct evidence.
