13 Conclusions Prior to the construction of the pipeline transport system in coastal environments, it is important to carry out an adequate hydraulic and geotechnical characterization of the torrential creeks, since for the design of subfluvial crossings with this type of channel, in some cases the erosive power of the Huaycos is underestimated, and therefore inadequate depth is established for the installation of the pipelines, which may imply a considerable investment in the medium term for the maintenance of protection works. It is necessary to perform a constant monitoring of the hydraulic behavior of subfluvial crossings of the STD of Camisea, before, during and after the rainy season; due to the activation of Huaycos events, for the implementation of protection works for the STD, and also to consider maintenance works in short periods that can increase the life span of the implemented works. In the case of the Huáncano project it is possible to carry out the removal of buffer pools and upstream settlers, to reduce the impact on the works.

14 Conclusions In the rivers crossings with exposure of the pipelines there were no extraordinary flows during the operation of the project, or rains of similar intensity, at least in the last thirty years. Also, it is emphasized that in these crosses a strong antropic intervention exists that modifies the hydraulic conditions of the rivers and, therefore, the rivers acquire a greater capacity of undermining and damage to the works executed in previous years. Thank You. 14
