Structural engineers and geologists were called in to = assess a=20 landslide in the La Jolla section of San Diego.

Published: October 3, 2007

SAN DIEGO, Calif., Oct. 3 =97 A landslide caused severe damage in the = hilly,=20 affluent La Jolla section of San Diego today, shredding a 150-foot = stretch of a=20 busy road and wrecking at least one hillside home.

At least 46 homes on the slopes of Mt. Soledad, which dominates the = area,=20 were ordered evacuated after the road buckled shortly before 9 a.m. = Pacific=20 time, according to Gary Hassen, a San Diego Police detective. Many of = the homes=20 were empty at the time of the landslide. No injuries were reported.

=93This is a big deal, there=92s significant damage,=94 Mr. Hassen = said. =93One home=20 is collapsing right now, slowly but surely.=94

Three utility poles were damaged in the slide, and electricity was = shut off=20 in the area as a precaution, leaving 411 customers without power, = according to=20 Jennifer Brisco of the San Diego Gas and Electric Company. But gas mains = were=20 not affected, Ms. Brisco said.

Michael Aguirre, the San Diego City Attorney, said it was too soon to = know=20 what caused the landslide. Mr. Aguirre, the city attorney, said = landslides and=20 shifting soil have been an issue on Mt. Soledad since the 1960s. =93This = is not a=20 new problem to the area,=94 he said. In a televised interview, Mr. = Aguirre noted=20 that the city had occasionally bought homes on Mt. Soledad that appeared = to be=20 in danger of sliding into their neighbors.

The mayor=92s office did not return calls seeking comment, but Mayor = Jerry=20 Sanders is expected to hold a news conference later today.

The damaged section of Soledad Mountain Road is about 150 feet long = and has=20 slumped as much as 12 feet down from its former level. City officials = said the=20 ground appeared to have stabilized again and that structural engineers = and=20 geologists had been called in to assess the situation. Mr. Aguirre said = that=20 houses in the area typically sell for more than $1 million and that a = number=20 nearby had been undergoing remodeling projects lately. There was some=20 speculation that heavy truck traffic or a water main leak related to the = construction activity might have been a factor in the slide. Large = trucks were=20 barred from the immediate area today.

Mr. Aguirre said that =93a serious care-in=94 in the same area in the = 1960s=20 destroyed several houses. Even so, the views from the side of the = mountain have=20 attracted people to continue building homes there, even though some have = nothing=20 but a sheer drop for a back yard.

Mr. Hassen, the police detective, said the damage to the road was = unusually=20 extensive: =93I=92ve been in San Diego since =9268, and this is the = largest hole I=92ve=20 ever seen.=94
