This paper presented a case analysis of debris flow hazards and its mitigation works. The Xianbuleng Gully which is located in Jinchuan County, Sichuan Province was selected as study area. This gully is an old debris flow gully which once burst out many debris flow disasters in history. If debris flows occur again in this gully, the township government, the center school and 13 village houses nearly 300 persons on the alluvial fan will be exposed to great risk. The environment settings and the hazard characteristics of the Xianbuleng debris flow were introduced first in this paper. Then, mitigation works especially the drainage canal under the optimal hydraulic condition were planned and designed in the gully for decreasing the debris flow hazards.
