Removal of debris on the slope and construction of breast wall with adequate weep holes at the toe and construction of lined hillside drainage to prevent further toe erosion.
Highly weathered gneiss loose, steep slope cutting and aggravated by toe erosion, super-saturation of debris which increased the hydrostatic pressure.
