Feedbacks

In sequence:“Unsa na inyo ginabuhat?” “College mo? Unsang kurso?” “Asa gikan na school?”

“Surveying namo sa subject na Structural Geology”“Mining Engineering among course, sa USEP”

“Aw, abi nakog naa’y mupalit sa yuta.”

Conclusion:

•Elevated and depressed areas were present on surveyed area.

•Residents were living on both areas mentioned.

•Natural hazards such as flood would most likely occur especially on depressed areas with little or no outcrops (especially the vacant lot) during heavy rain falls. Planting trees would help reduce the risk of flooding on depressed areas.

Conclusion:

•Since the surveyed area was uphill, were residents were present, risk of landslide could occur and residents affected would be the ones located downhill.

Recommendations:

•Because of the nature of the area, with slides and difference in elevations, it is not advisable for people to build residential houses in the area especially on depressed areas. Planting of trees on vacant areas must be done to reduce risk of flooding and landslides. Engineering interventions shall be made especially if housing subdivisions is to be made on the area so as not to endanger residents living downhill.
