"Both areas suffered watershed damage ... to such a significance that we expect massive debris-laden flows when it rains," Pestrella said.
"In order to address this, we are developing plans for both areas to capture and hold this debris back as much as we can during a rain event," Pestrella said.
"The current flood control system is designed to handle debris flows, but in an event that we have major rain, we do expect that all areas will be impacted by debris flows that will be hazardous to human health," Pestrella said.
"Raveling of the slopes, gas lines and water lines that were destroyed in the wildfire has left the soil fragile, putting the area at higher risk of landslides," Pestrella noted.
