After reading more about the region around where the earthquake swarm has been occurring there is likely a connection to magma flow.

The Dittmar Volcanic Center (2.4–1.4 Ma) lies at the NW end of the Lake Almanor Graben. Deposits of the Dittmar Volcanic Center are grouped into 3 stratigraphic stages: Stage 1, early growth of the composite cone (1.6 to 2.3 Ma) with thin lava flows and intermixed layers (interbedded) of air-fall and volcanoclastic deposits; Stage 2, later growth of the composite cone (1.4 Ma) with thick lava flows and some intermixed explosive or sedimented deposits; and Stage 3, late silicic volcanism (1.3 Ma) with a few lava flows and domes of rhyodacite and rhyolite.
