municipalities o -a#um&ayan7 +sulan7 (speran:a and Lam&ayon#* +t is the
ma/or source o irri#ation water that supplies two @2A ma/or irri#ation systems
in the provinces o Sultan Kudarat and South 0ota&ato*
'llah 8iver has usually one ma/or Oood each year as a result o
seasonal rains or annual monsoon* %he ma#nitude o Oood varies each year

has is enormous and the social disruptions has caused heartless set-&ack to

&y the Ooodin# o 'llah 8iver are the low lyin# areas within its Oood plain

%he present Oood caused &y typhoon Frank in Hune 200$ has destroyed

compared to the devastation caused &y Oood in year 1<<27 which is known as
the Lake !au#han incident*
Floodin# in the ma/or rivers o the province is a##ravated &y the
e)cessive siltation due to erosion* %he denudation o our mountains and
orest lands due to various human activities is the primary cause o this

'lthou#h the #overnment had undertaken several Oood control and
disaster prevention measures to reduce the impact o Oood in Oood-prone
municipalities o the province7 it has &een o&served however7 that the Oood
control structures alon# the ma/or rivers are either reKuently dama#ed or not
