UNCOVERING THE CAUSE OF BANAUE FLASH FLOOD — Mines and Geosciences Bureau-Cordillera geologists John Christian Mapalo, Jethro Panganiban, and chief of Geosciences Bureau Benigno Cesar Espejo presented their case study on the landslide and flashflood that hit Banaue, Ifugao last July. The MGB recommended for the local government to improve the drainage system and slope stability to mitigate, if not prevent the same events from happening in the future. — MGB-CAR photo
