The water resources management affords many solutions to manage water more holistically and optimally. In essence, they are a call to stop fragmentary approaches to water management and high-handed development decisions made for the benefit of a single user group of action.The Integrated Water Basin Management and its components are used to find a suitable flood mititgation measure. The study area is Orathur of Kancheepuram district. The data that are used in this work is been taken for the consecutive 20 years and it has been analysed. With the overall data the GIS mapping is done using ArcGIS software to locate the area precisely. Its tributaries and origin from Manimangalam tributary is located clearly to estimate the inflow and outflow of the water and the demand for water at the particular region is found and then analysed for the planning of water management and flood control..
