FINANCIAL FEASIBILITY STUDY ON RELOCATION AT VILLAGE LEVEL FROM DISASTER DANGEROUS AREA

Abstract

The numerous landslides due to the torrential rain have frequently occurred in the urban fringe of many cities in recent years. In order to protect residents from landslide disasters, it seems to be desired that the residents, which live in landslide-damaged areas, to migrate to safe areas. In this study, we examined financial feasibility of the scheme, which can allow the residents in landslide dangerous area to migrate to safe residential area, by cost-benefit analysis. The case study of Kyushu region indicated that migration source mesh of about 20 percent had financially feasible of this scheme.
