ABSTRACT

The Olmos Transfer Project located in northern Peru is one of the most important water irrigation projects for the people living in the north-western desert regions of Olmos, Peru. Due to the complex geological conditions that the engineers are faced with on the north-south slope of the Limon Dam and the obvious stability issues that they are faced with, a wide array of instruments have been installed to aid in monitoring the slope and the movements that are taking place. The results of this monitoring scheme are compiled annually to closely track changes in the slope behaviour and to assist in refining additional remediation that is required.
