They are also common along coastlines and river valleys. Landslides occur most frequently in regions where climate and precipitation, bedrock and soil conditions, and slopes are susceptible to failure.

Furthermore, ashen debris flows caused by earthquakes can also trigger mass movement of soil. Heavy Rainfall: When sloped areas become completely saturated by heavy rainfall many times landslides can occur.

and indirect costs such as lost timber and 
lost fish stocks.Water availability,quantity
and quality can be affected

The agency lists California, Oregon, Washington, Alaska and Hawaii as especially prone.

After a Landslide:

  1. Don’t go into or return to an area that just experienced a landslide since there may be additional landslides. Only return to the area once it is officially safe to do so.
  2. Flooding may occur after a landslide since they might be caused by the same factors.
  3. Provide assistance to neighbours and to any special needs individuals such as children and to the elderly.
  4. Check your property for any structural damage.
  5. Check for any damaged utility lines or ruptured water mains. Report any damage that may have occurred to the relevant utility company such as T&TEC and WASA.
  6. Replant damaged ground immediately since soil erosion could be further caused by loss of ground cover.
