felt it 45km up the coast, was located on the wairau fault, runs up to Kapiti Island and splits, and runs down the southern alps, main fault/tectonic I think.

God have mercy if the main fault lets one rip. Apparently happens ever 300 years or so.

According to the U.S. Geological Survey, the Feb. 22 quake involved faulting at the eastern edge of the aftershock zone from the Sept. 2010 event. The earthquake is broadly associated with deformation occurring at the boundary of the Pacific and Australia tectonic plates.
