(a) Currently the Commonwealth has no program responsibility related to landslide problems. However, the Commonwealth administers numerous programs which may encourage future growth and development in areas potentially vulnerable to landslides. The coordination of these programs to recognize landslide problems may strengthen local planning efforts to protect the environment and reduce property damages in areas vulnerable to landslides.
(b) It shall be the environmental policy of the Commonwealth to coordinate existing State plans and programs discouraging development where environmentally sensitive controls are lacking and supporting local planning which identifies and controls landslide problems.
