The prevention and control of debris flow and hillside disasters can be separated into 2 categories of “Engineering Methods” and “Non-Engineering Methods" which by disaster promotion, planning evacuation policy, establish disaster prevention system etc.

＊Engineering methods: engineering - Silt Arrester, submerged dam or water flow, revetment, levee, drainage, and ecological engineering method etc.

＊Engineering methods: debris flow control engineering methods
1.Suppress engineering method
2.Interception engineering method
3.Stilting engineering method
4.Distribution engineering method
5.Buffering bush engineering method

＊Non-Engineering Methods: include making the disaster potential plan of the dangerous zone, survival map with evacuation, places and routes and provide, educate and train and make public to the general public. In addition, install detectors in dangerous areas, enhance disaster data collection and transmission system for an effective disaster response time.

＊Slope land disaster response procedures of the Government
‧Investigate the potential dangerous area and make public about information and announce.
‧Establish system for forecasting and warning of dangers.
‧Found the nationally owned land environmental protection.
‧Construction and land use management
‧Review the policy of leasing and use of the public owned slope lands
‧Management of excessive use of slope lands.
‧Appropriate management of the existing dangerous zones.


＊Slope land community disasters response procedures
‧In accordance with the relevant orders about disaster rescue, never go to dangerous areas where may have collapse and debris flow during typhoon or intense rain period
‧Involve in community disaster prevention plan and job distribution, inspect the area and open any potentially dangerous areas, to help plan and establish emergency reporting system, helping the elderly, weak, women and children evacuate to safe area before typhoon or storm arrives, planning to set up temporary emergency shelters for dangerous zones during typhoon or storm.
‧Plann to implement the relocation for the whole village.
‧Support in clearing up the roads after a disaster.
