2006 Kiholo Bay earthquake

The 2006 Kiholo Bay earthquake happened on Sunday, October 15, 2006 at 7:07:48 am in the Hawaii region about 20 km NNE of Kailua Kona, Hawai'i, Hawaii. The Kiholo Bay earthquake was a large, deep mantle earthquake. The focus of the earthquake was  the mantle. It  had quite a depth therefore it was a deep focus earthquake. The weight of the islands caused the earthquake to occur because of load and stress/bend of the brittle lithosphere, generating stresses that drive the earthquake faulting into the mantle. It was primarily 

caused by underground rock suddenly breaking along a fault. The Richter scale magnitude of the Kiholo Bay earthquake is 6.7. The earthquake caused a lot of damage to Hawaii. The biosphere was affected because plants were destroyed and animals lost their homes as well as their lives were in danger. The lithosphere including roads and mountains have been negatively impacted by breaking or things falling over them.The economic impact of the earthquake was paying millions of dollars in order to fix the damages. The earthquake also had a negative impact on the infrastructure as it ruined and completely destroyed buildings, roads, overpasses, and bridges.
