  The Los Angeles Department of Public Works Geotechnical Engineering Division completed a field investigation of a landslide below Via De Las Olas at Friends Street in Pacific Palisades that occurred in January 2022 and was reactivated in early 2023. The investigation found that the deteriorating ribbed-metal bulkhead is susceptible to further undermining due to continuous groundwater seepage at the geologic contact, and recommends cooperation between Recreation and Parks and Cal Trans to repair the slide, clean terrace drains, and refer the bulkhead to the Hillside Slope Stability Program.
