General Checklist for Slope Protection and Preparednes California Coastal Commission General Checklist for Slope Protection and Preparedness 1.
Slopes Visually inspect all sloped areas for signs of gullying, surface cracks, slumping etc.
Also inspect patios, retaining walls, garden walls, etc. for signs of cracking or rotation. Such signs might be indications of slope movement. If you notice any problems, have the site inspected by a geotechnical engineer. Bare Ground Make sure your yard does not have large bare areas which could be sources for mudflows during a storm event. Blufftop Inspections Visually inspect all blufftop retaining walls, wall drains, surface drains, culverts, ditches, etc. for obstructions or other signs of malfunction, before the storm season, and after every storm.
