Drainage and Inundation : main problems
From technical point of view insufficient operation and maintenance to the river and drainage system, lack of spatial planning, encroachment of the riverbanks, structures crossing rivers and drainage systems and land subsidence are the major causes of the floods while the lack of coordination between the different authorities, the absence of proper organization structure to execute O&M and limited funds for O&M are causes from non technical point of view;

Drainage and Inundation : main problems
• Water management problems in low lying areas are of special importance in urban areas, where the combination of a dense paved surface, a low infiltration rate and limited discharge capacity demands special measures to reduce flooding due to impeded drainage. Urban water management involves all aspects related to water in the city: storm water- and wastewater discharge, safety and risk assessment, water storage, water quality, spatial planning and ecology;

Drainage and Inundation : main problems
• New concepts for the integration of urban drainage infrastructure in the urban environment are frequently employed by our drainage and flood control engineers. Measures are ranging from flood diversion channels to ‘urban wadi-systems’ to promote infiltration and reduce drainage discharge. Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems (SUDS) refers to a collection of methods used to reduce runoff from hard surfaces through storage and by enhancing groundwater recharge via infiltration.

The Dutch delta
2/3 of The Netherlands below sea level
Long history in building dikes and polders to protect the people and industry / agriculture from floods coming from sea and rivers
Last large flood: 1 February 1953
Delta Works: Hard coastal defenses and river dike improvements
![Page 9: Seminar “ Will it flood like 2011?” A Dutch Example Bangkok, 13 th January 2012 Harrie Laboyrie](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062408/568134df550346895d9c13e7/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
The Dutch delta
The Delta Works Shortening the total length of the dikes by 700 kilometres
Improved agricultural freshwater supply
Improved water balance and manipulation of the Delta area.
Improved infrastructure and mobility in Zeeland
Support inland waterways shipping.
New developments in the areas of nature and recreation

Integrated design Safety: Protect the land against
the sea Infrastructure: road connection Environmental: Unique ecosystem
with a wide variety of wildlife (original plan was a closed dike)
Economic: Structure decreases the length of dike improvements inland (saving in costs and O&M)

- Higher sealevel
- More water from the rivers
- In the summer more often droughts

Safety against flooding Increase safety levels for all inhabitants Spatial planning for risk area’s Evacuation plans New concepts of strong or even “unbreakable”
levees Continue “Room for Rivers” Enforce coastal zone using sand (“building with
nature”)

The Dutch delta
Fresh water supplies Netherlands has plenty fresh water, but ….
in the near future more droughts en more saltwater penetration from the sea Fresh water essential for agriculture, industry, drinking water, etcetera Investigate what to do
- Optimize water usage on local level
- IJsselmeer
- Protect groundwater supplies

Cooperation with other deltas in the world
Permanent cooperation with deltas in the world Exchanging knowledge and experience Focus on climate change and Millennium Development Goals Technical + governance Government, science, NGO’s & private sector
together!

Delta Dialogue sustainable development
Process model for a sustainable delta development process Three individual but inseparably linked pillars:
- Result;
- Support;
- Innovation.
The Pillars are related to:-
the content of a process;
- the actors who are involved in the process;
- the wider context in which the process
is taking place and has an effect.
All three pillars are equally important. Managing on the basis of only one or two pillars increases the risk of an ineffective process.
