  • Modify the slope gradient by removal or addition of material
  • Build retaining walls to increase external support.
  • Plant deep rooted plants to bind regolith.
  • Create berms in place where Rock fall are anticipated like rock cuts.
  • Install rock bolts or artificial plant roots that mechanically bolt weak rock layers to the bedrock.
