Application of Hydraulic and Environmental Geology in Geological Disaster Management

In recent years, geological disasters have occurred frequently in China, which not only have a serious impact on urban construction, but also directly threaten people's lives and property. In response to this situation, China must strengthen the control of the construction quality during process of geological disaster management to improve the construction quality. This paper mainly introduces the common geological disasters and the characteristics of geological disasters management projects, expounds the main control points and measures for quality of geological disaster management projects, thus promoting their construction quality.

Indonesian National Board for Disaster Management (BNPB) claimed the landslide incident on 5 May 2015 in Pangalengan District caused gas pipelines owned by PT. Geothermal Star Energy exploded, 9 people died, 154 displaced and 10 houses buried. Based on the facts, it is necessary to make an effort to reduce the risk of landslides by utilizing satellite imagery. The purpose of this study was to identify potential landslides on the Pangalengan highway and make recommendations mitigation actions for the local government. The method used was using 2 estimation system models made by the Directorate of Volcanology and Geological Disaster Mitigation in 2004 and 2005. The result of the DVMBG 2004 showed the very high classification had a percentage of 97.24% and the DVMBG 2005 result showed the high classification reached 53.26% and the very high classification reached 53.26%. The potential for landslides on the Pangalengan road is 98.37%. Recommended mitigation actions were cutting slopes or making soil retaining walls or drainage channel planning.
