The 2010 Guatemala City sinkhole was a disaster on 30 May 2010, in which an area approximately 65 ft (20 m) across and 300 ft (90 m) deep collapsed in Guatemala City 's Zona 2, swallowing a three-story factory. [1] [2] [3] [4] The sinkhole occurred for a combination of reasons, including Tropical Storm Agatha , the Pacaya Volcano eruption , and leakage from sewer pipes. [5]

Overall, the risk of sinkholes occurring in Guatemala City is very high and unpredictable. [6] One recent, similar sinkhole had collapsed in 2007, forming a pit 100 metres deep. [7] [8] The 2007 Guatemala City sinkhole was formed by fluid from a sewer eroding uncemented volcanic ash , limestone , and other pyroclastic deposits underlying Guatemala City. [7] [8] The hazards around the pipe have since then been mitigated, by improved handling of the city's wastewater and runoff. [9] Several rainstorms also contributed to the sinkhole's collapse, as stormwater percolated into the ground, further dissolving the rocks beneath Guatemala City. [10] [11] The 2010 sinkhole was formed for similar reasons. [12]

The sinkhole formed due to volcanic pumice deposits, upon which Guatemala City is built. [3] These deposits were unconsolidated and of low density, allowing easy erosion . [3] According to Sam Bonis, a geologist at Dartmouth College , leaking pipes went unfixed long enough to create the conditions necessary for sinkhole formation because of lax city zoning regulations and building codes. [3] Bonis also says that the Guatemala City sinkhole is a misnomer: sinkholes have natural causes, but this one was mainly artificial. [3] In addition, according to Bonis, sinkholes are usually formed from limestone but there is no limestone hundreds of metres underneath Guatemala City. [3] Bonis proposes that the sinkhole be renamed a piping feature. [3]

Tropical Storm Agatha was first identified as a trough of low pressure of the western coast of Costa Rica on May 24, 2010. [13] On May 29, the depression intensified into a tropical storm and was given the name Agatha. [14] Later that day, the system intensified slightly before making landfall near the Mexico - Guatemala border with winds of 45 mph (75 km/h). [15] By the morning of May 30, the center of Agatha moved over the highest terrain in Central America , resulting in the dissipation of the low-level circulation. [16] Torrential rains from the storm widened the cavity, eventually causing the collapse of the sinkhole. [3]

On May 27, three days before Agatha became a tropical depression, the Pacaya volcano, located about 25 mi (40 km) south of Guatemala City , erupted, killing at least one person and blanketing nearby areas with layers of ash. [17] The eruption prompted officials to shut down the country's international airport. [18] Upon the formation of Agatha, people feared that excessive rainfall from the storm could exacerbate the situation and trigger lahars . [19] This had the effect of clogging the underground pipes with soot , increasing the chances of pipe rupture. [3] [4]

Mariela Castañón, a reporter for the daily newspaper La Hora , reported that the ground collapsed suddenly, taking a three-story house that was used as a factory, and possibly a security guard, along with it. Electricity poles were also sucked in. Authorities said they could not confirm the security guard's death. [1] [20]

Because of the role played by sewage pipes in the sinkhole's collapse, Sam Bonis, along with other geologists, has demanded that the government inspect the sewer system more regularly. [4]

According to officials, the sinkhole had similarities with another Guatemalan sinkhole which collapsed in 2007 , which may also have been formed by ruptured sewage pipes. [4] [21] [22]

On a wider scale, immediately following reports of fatalities due to Agatha, a state of emergency was declared for Guatemala. [23] On May 31, the government started to deploy national aid, and donation centers for victims of the storm were opened across the country. According to the Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), schools in Guatemala were to be closed until at least June 4. [24]

Immediately after the sinkhole's collapse, there were plans to fill it in with a soil cement made from cement , limestone , and water known locally as lodocreto ("mudcrete"). This substance was also used to fill in the 2007 Guatemala City sinkhole . However, another technique, which geologists call the graded-filter technique, in which the sinkhole is filled with successive layers of boulders, smaller rocks, and gravel, could possibly be a better solution. [25] This is because filling the hole in with cement diverts water runoff to other areas, potentially increasing the risk of sinkholes occurring in other parts of the city. The graded-filter technique, on the other hand, allows water to seep through. [26]

Home Departments Transportation Streets, Alleys and Sidewalks Services Pothole in the Street

A pothole is formed when street surfaces freeze and thaw and crack, allowing water to seep under the pavement. As that water freezes and thaws, it causes an expansion in the surface crack, creating what we see as potholes. Potholes usually occur in a traffic lane of roadways and are normally irregular in shape and size. They also tend to be relatively shallow holes unless ignored, and the base of the street is still observable .
Cave-ins can occur when utility services housed underneath the roadway are damaged and are usually found near a manhole or catch basin. Cave-ins, sometimes called sinkholes, can range from a slight dip in the roadway to a deep hole in the pavement that requires immediate attention.
CDOT has inspectors in neighborhoods across the city and construction crews assigned to repair potholes throughout the year. Because most potholes occur during the winter and spring, CDOT schedules crews to work every day, including weekends during ‘pothole season’.
When a cave-in or sinkhole is reported, CDOT inspectors will assess the degree of damage to the roadway and determine what caused the problem. It will then forward its assessment to the agency or utility company that needs to make the repairs. Depending on what caused the cave-in, work under the roadway might need to be completed before the road repairs are made.
Residents are asked to report potholes and cave-ins they encounter to 311.

This service request allows for Chicago residents to report street surface potholes. Please include the location of the pothole when making the request.
Potholes are typically irregularly shaped pavement holes. If the problem appears to be a utility cut (usually a square cut for water or sewer repairs) or a sinkhole (usually a dip in the pavement or a void, often near a manhole or catch basin), please call 311 directly.
