A potential rockfall risk from the slopes next to the Kavsakbendi high dam and Hydroelectric power plant has been identified and found as a potential threat for the safety of the structures and the staff. During the site visit of our technical engineers, the slopes above the high dam structure were investigated and several large sized rocks with a high potential to fall were identified. Along the hydroelectric power plant, large sized blocks and debris materials which were moved especially during the rainy season were detected. Both slope areas were endangering the health and safety of the structure and staff below.

Siargao Island in the province of Surigao del Norte is known to be the Surfing Capital of the Philippines. Not just for surfers, Siargao's fascinating natural beauty captivates both local and foreign tourists. However, some areas are susceptible to landslides and other natural hazards due to the geologic setting and weather conditions. Certain sections of the road is confined by cut-slopes along its perimeter which is unprotected and presents the following risks: (1) erosion of soil – leading to slippery roads, (2) dislodgement of rocks leading to rockfall events, and (3) localized slope failure from surfacial instability. Even small rockfalls, or debris flows can block infrastructure and can have far-reaching economic effects beyond the immediate disruption.
