Engineers have yet to decide what remedial work will be needed to fix a major slip on Portal St, the main access route to Wanganui's Durie Hill suburb.
The slip appeared in front of a house in Rees St, a cul-de-sac above Portal St, after heavy rains brought flooding and slips to a large part of the city and district on June 20-21.
Meanwhile, Gail Kettle, EQC customer and claims general manager, said the commission had received 256 damage claims so far from across the district as a result of the June floods.
"Two teams of our assessors with two in each team last week began visiting properties where claims have been lodged," Ms Kettle said.
She said once engineers had inspected both the Rees St properties they would prepare reports so EQC could work out what the next steps would be.
