The mountain ridge situated directly above the STCBL fuel depot,Amochu at Deling Marbi under Phuntsholing Gewog is experiencing active, progressive mass wasting. Landslide debris continuously accumulates in the underlying gorges. During heavy rainfall, intense stormwater runoff flushes this accumulated material downstream, completely choking the culvert bridge on the Phuentsholing–Samtse highway. Consequently, a thick slurry of mud and debris overflows the bridge, inundating the highway and the newly developed Phuntsholing Township Development Project (PTDP) infrastructure. This recurring issue causes severe traffic disruptions and significant economic losses to the nation.
