Seriously, shut it.
You're predicting an earthquake in an area that is a hotbed of volcanic activity, and yet also conveniently located near the San Andreas? What next, are you going to predict a hurricane will strike Florida in the summer?
Or that a mini earthquake "swarm" was there in 2009?
The area is 2 hours away from Sacramento. 2 hours north of San Francisco. If an earthquake is epicentered there, the biggest worry would be to the geothermal energy production from that area, as it provides electricity to many of the nearby regions. California won't fall off into the ocean.
So, which animal whispered this nugget of information into your ear?
Or did you read about all the geothermal power plants in the area, and decided they're bad, and thinks it deserves an earthquake? That the existence of the various plants mostly controlled by one company is horrible and you need to predict an earthquake to knock them all offline, knock out power to a part of the state, the people will rebel, and you'll be proven awesome?
Or you think the plants alone will create an earthquake of a 6.0 magnitude by their presence? It's not close enough to a major fault that the increase in seismic activity in the area will "cause" a larger quake to happen.
It's all lunacy.
We live in California. We accept the risk a major earthquake will happen. People take precautions in case of emergency. There's nothing else we can do. Stop screaming about an earthquake. There is NO WAY to predict an earthquake.
