Spring Budget 2024: £75M for internal drainage boards to protect farms from floods Agricultural land will be better protected from flooding following £75M of funding announced by the government during the Spring Budget for internal drainage boards (IDBs). IDBs are designed to enable local authorities to work together, with the input of relevant stakeholders, to manage land drainage and mitigate flood risks. #springbudget2024

The Northeast Boundary Tunnel is an important part of DC Water's Clean Rivers project. It helps to improve the water quality of the Anacostia River in Washington, D.C. How? In the event of sewer floods, the tunnel contributes to significantly mitigating the frequency and, more importantly, the duration of these floods. Click on the link to learn more about this great American project. #Webuild ...a strategic and ambitious project to mitigate the frequency, extent and duration of sewer flooding and improve the water quality of the Anacostia River.

The hydraulic analysis of the flow through a flood control conduit or sluice usually involves consideration of two conditions of low. When the upper pool is at low stages, for example during diversion, open-channel flow may occur in the conduit. As the reservoir level is raised, the depth of flow in the conduit increases until the conduit flows full. In the design of outlet works, the number and size of the conduits and the elevations of their grade line are determined with consideration of overall costs. The conduits are usually designed to provide the required discharge capacity at a specified reservoir operating level, although adequate capacity during diversion may govern in some cases. Conduits should normally slope downstream to ensure drainage. The elevation of good foundation materials may govern the invert elevation of conduits

Road construction without proper hydrological studies can have severe consequences due to the power of water. Hydrological studies are essential for understanding the natural flow patterns of water in a given area, including rainfall intensity, drainage patterns, and flood risks. Without this knowledge, road construction projects may not adequately account for the impact of water and can lead to various technical issues. #civilengineering

It's question and answer power hour. Here were your questions about infiltration basins. Q: What exactly is an infiltration basin? A: An infiltration basin is a stormwater management feature designed to capture runoff and allow it to soak into the ground, reducing flooding and recharging aquifers. Q: Why are infiltration basins important in arid areas? A: They are crucial for controlling sudden, heavy runoff during infrequent storms, preventing urban flooding and erosion, and aiding groundwater replenishment in these water-scarce environments. Q: What maintenance do these require? A: They need regular cleaning to remove sediments and maintenance to manage water flow on the slopes to prevent erosion, ensuring they continue to operate effectively. Q: Isn't sediment a huge issue for these basins? A: Implementing gentler slopes, using vegetation to stabilize soil, and designing features to slow down water flow can all help prevent rill erosion, thus maintaining the structural integrity of the basin.

Today’s judgment of the Court of Appeal in Substation Action v SSESNZ [2024] EWCA Civ 12 warrants careful reading for its reasoning on both flooding and cumulative impact assessment. In particular, Lewis LJ (Coulson and William Davis LJJ agreeing) found that: ”The relevant provisions of EN-1, the Framework and the PPG do not require an applicant for development consent to demonstrate that whenever there is a risk of flooding from surface water there are no other sites reasonably available where the proposed development could be located in an area of lower surface water flood risk.” This could have significant practical implications for planning decisions, particularly where it is argued that surface water flood risk demands a sequential site selection exercise. Very disappointed not to succeed on this point in front of the Court. #nppf #flooding #planninglaw

Dams and spillways play a critical role in water resource management, flood control, and energy generation. Dams store water for irrigation, drinking water, and hydropower, while spillways safely control and release excess water to prevent overflow and flooding. Learn more about how these essential structures protect communities and contribute to sustainable water management in our latest article. 👇 https://buff.ly/3XQPr5a #WaterManagement #FloodControl #DamFunction #Spillway #Infrastructure #Sustainability
