Landslides caused by high-intensity rains are caused by the absence of special routes for water disposal flows. In addition, the condition of the soil is also unstable and not yet dense because the area is a dredged land. In addition to causing the hipam pipeline to cut off in Bumiaji District, high-intensity rain also caused landslides in Sumberejo Village, Batu District. Non-technical Plengsengan experienced landslides with a length of six meters and a height of four meters. Then, high-intensity rain also triggered flooding on Jalan Mawar Putih, Sukorembug Hamlet, Sidomulyo Village, Batu District. Three houses in the area were flooded with a height of 20-30 centimeters. "In addition, one State Elementary School 03 Sidomulyo was also flooded," he said.
