Section 16.1.3.2
At sites within 3 miles (5 km) of the active fault that controls the hazard,
each pair of components shall be rotated to the fault-normal and fault-
parallel directions of the causative fault and shall be scaled so that the
average of the fault-normal components is not less than the MCER
response spectrum for the period range from 0.2T to 1.5T.

Section 16.2.3.3
When the MCER ground motion level is controlled by events for which
near-fault effects are expected, the site shall be identified as a near-
fault site and a suitable number of the ground motions shall include
near-fault and directivity effects including direction of fault rupture and
velocity pulses as appropriate.
