It is estimated that 3,003 homes were totally destroyed or were classified as being at high risk and<br />

could not be rebuilt on their original sites due to their exposure to future disasters. Applying urban standards<br />

of 140 m 2 per lot, which include the 30% needed for urbanization, the amount of land needed to<br />

relocate these homes is 42 hectares.
