El nivel de alerta en el que se encuentran las viviendas en Altos de la Estancia debido a la remoción en masa

Abstract

The Altos de la Estancia sector, located in Ciudad Bolívar, is an area of ​​high threat due to the removal of mass, caused by the mismanagement of sewage. When a sector lacks adequate drainage management or has a fault in the wastewater system, these are usually discharged to open ground, therefore, the soil tends to lose resistance due to the increase in internal pressures and it can also be caused a saturation of the soil and this leads to the soil being more prone to a phenomenon of mass removal, which is happening to the Altos de la Estancia sector. Mass removal from this sector has been increasing over time, this has been evidenced by monitoring techniques that have been carried out in the area; Despite the fact that the Altos de la Estancia industrial estate project has been implemented, this area is still of great concern to IDIGER, for this reason it is important to carry out constant monitoring and follow-up, in order to determine the degree of risk that may occur. have families that still reside in this area.
