Alternative study of type and location of flood control infrastructure in the drainage system, Avfour Kelor channel, Tuban regency

Kaligawe merupakan salah satu daerah rawan banjir di Kota Semarang. Kawasan Kaligawe termasuk dalam Sub Sistem Kali Tenggang. Penanganan terhadap banjir di Kaligawe telah dilakukan oleh pemerintah berupa normalisasi sungai dan pembangunan sistem polder sebagai bagian dari sistem drainase. Untuk menjamin keberlanjutan pengelolaan sistem drainase, diperlukan keterlibatan seluruh stakeholders, termasuk partisipasi masyarakat yang bertempat tinggal di dalamnya. Di wilayah Kaligawe, ada beberapa bangunan infrastruktur pengendali banjir seperti kolam retensi, rumah pompa, pintu gerak dan saluran drainase. Bangunan infrastruktur tersebut dapat terganggu fungsinya bila masyarakat tidak peduli, seperti membuang sampah di saluran drainase, merusak kolam retensi, mengambil/mencuri peralatan di rumah pompa dan lain sebagainya. Oleh sebab itu warga di kawasan tersebut perlu mendapatkan edukasi bagaimana hidup di lingkungan sistem polder. Sekolah Dqsar (SD) Kaligawe berada di wilayah Kaligawe, dimana para guru perlu diberikan edukasi agar dapat ikut berpartisipasi dalam pemeliharaan bangunan infrastruktur pengendali banjir. Edukasi yang akan diberikan meliputi pemahaman tentang penyebab dan dampak banjir di Semarang, penanganan banjir dan bangunan infrastruktur pengendali banjir di sekitar sekolah serta mitigasi bencana dan konsep Sekolah Siaga Bencana (SSB). Hasil pre-test terhadap guru, menunjukkan bahwa guru-guru di SD Kaligawe masih banyak yang tidak memahami bangunan pengendali banjir yang ada di sekitar lingkungan kerja mereka. Melalui edukasi yang diberikan dalam penyuluhan, guru-guru bisa memahami peran yang harus dilakukan dalam menjaga keberlangsungan bangunan pengendali banjir. Hasil post-test menunjukkan tingkat pemahaman yang meningkat pada guru-guru terhadap pengendalian banjir di wilayah Kaligawe.Kaligawe is one of the flood areas in the city of Semarang. Kaligawe area is included in the Kali Tenggang Sub-System. The government has handled floods in the area in the form of river normalization and construction of a polder system as part of the drainage system. To ensure the sustainability of the drainage system management, it requires the involvement of all stakeholders, including the participation of the people who live in it. In the Kaligawe area, there are several flood control infrastructure buildings such as retention ponds, pump houses, mobile gates and drainage channels. The function of these infrastructure buildings can be disrupted if the community does not care, such as throwing garbage in the drainage channels, damaging retention ponds, taking / stealing equipment at pump houses and so on. Therefore, residents in the area need to get education on how to live in a polder system environment. SD Kaligawe is located in Kaligawe area, where teachers need education in order to participate in the maintenance of flood control infrastructure. The education that will be provided includes understanding the causes and impacts of floods in Semarang, flood management and building flood control infrastructure as well as disaster mitigation and the concept of Disaster Alert School (SSB). The results of the pre-test conducted in this study showed that many teachers at SD Kaligawe did not understand the flood control buildings that were around their school environment. Through the education provided in counseling, teachers can understand the role that must be played in maintaining the sustainability of flood control buildings. The results of the post test showed an increased level of teachers on understanding of flood control in the Kaligawe area.

Abstract Recently urban waterlogging problems have become more and more serious, and the construction of an airport runway makes the impervious area of the airport high, which leads to the deterioration of the water environment and frequent waterlogging disasters. It is of great significance to design and construct the sponge airport with low impact development (LID) facilities. In this paper, we take catchment N1 of Beijing Daxing International Airport as a case study. The LID facilities are designed and the runoff process of a heavy rainfall in catchment N1 is simulated before and after the implementation of LID facilities. The results show that the total amount of surface runoff, the number of overflow junctions and full-flow conduits of the rainwater drainage system in catchment N1 of Beijing Daxing International Airport are significantly reduced after the implementation of the LID facilities. Therefore, the application of LID facilities has greatly improved the ability of the airport to remove rainwater and effectively alleviated the risk of waterlogging in the airport flight area. This study provides theoretical support for airport designers and managers to solve flood control and rainwater drainage problems and has vital practical significance.

Abstract Even if public agencies sponsoring projects like flood alleviation have the best of intentions for relocated households, there may still be residents who do not agree with being forced to move. Federal relocation policy in the US has been, and continues to be, concerned primarily with housing economics and financial compensation. And yet, residents subject to relocation continue to express other concerns. The public agency responsible for relocation from flood-prone Kashmere Gardens in Houston, TX has promised to make households 'whole' in terms of finding new housing that is no more expensive (in terms of rent, mortgage payments, and equity) than vacated homes. While these considerations are important, this article illustrates how public agencies need to expand how they define 'whole.' Interviews with 53 households affected directly or indirectly by relocation show that the following factors need consideration when subjecting households to involuntary relocation: (1) suitability of new housing, (2) perceived competence of relocation specialists, (3) the relocation planning process, and (4) potential health issues for relocated households.

Flood is a regular problem in Semarang. The causes of flooding include changes in land use, intensity and high rainfall and erosion and sedimentation in the river channel. Development efforts for flood control has been conducted, such as the development and optimization of drainage systems. Maintenance and operation of the drainage system supported by the good institutional capacity is expected to handle the problem of flooding. Therefore, the right institutional model is necessary in the management of the drainage system of Semarang. The research data were obtained through a variety of literature as well as interviews with the parties related to the management of drainage in Semarang. There was three institutional model of drainage system management implemented in Semarang were institutional model of government-based, institutional model of community-based, and institutional model of stakeholders-based. There were 24 respondents from government, municipality, entrepreneurs and communities who have assessed the institutional model of drainage system management. Each institutional model analyzed in the five aspects of drainage management, namely technical, institutional, legal, financial and community participation. The results of the study showed that the most appropriate institutional model for managing the drainage system in Semarang is institutional model of stakeholders-based. This institutional model has the advantage such as drainage system maintenance can be handled more quickly, the legal regulations issued by the government and financing sources drainage system can come from any source, such as the central government, municipalities, grants, and also from non-governmental.

Significance On the heels of the COVID-19 pandemic and a serious economic downturn exacerbated by trade frictions with the United States, the flooding poses yet another crisis for Beijing. Impacts There is no compelling immediate evidence to support claims that the Three Gorges Dam or major flood-control infrastructure could collapse. The economic damage from flooding will be significant, but far less than that caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Climate change need not mean deadlier inland floods, particularly if flood-control and emergency response systems continue to improve.

Cypress Trees

Humans design infrastructure for human needs, with limited regard for the needs of nonhumans such as animals and plants. Humans also often fail to recognise nonhuman lifeforms such as trees as fellow engineers designers, or architects, even though the contribution of trees to ecosystem services is well established and their right to justice ought to be recognised. Studies have shown that flood-control infrastructure near the Mississippi River inadvertently left Southern Louisiana more vulnerable to coastal threats. We examine this characteristic outcome and identify infrastructural injustices in multispecies communities. Based on theories in philosophy and design supported by historical analyses, we defend the proposals to extend 1) the understanding of resilience to include more-than-human communities; and 2) the notion of justice to include non-human stakeholders. The reframing in more-than-human terms is already under way in a variety of disciplines. However, these efforts rarely extend into considerations of practical design and have attracted criticism for insufficient engagement with historical processes and the accumulations of power and responsibility. To illustrate these injustices, we trace the history of bald cypress trees (Taxodium distichum) in the Mississippi River Delta and show how infrastructure impacted the trees. This analysis demonstrates that designs that do not consider the needs of vulnerable stakeholders can cause harm in multispecies communities. In response, we propose that humans can work to improve infrastructural resilience by including humans and nonhumans as collaborators.

Flood control structures play an important role in saving lives and property during floods, especially due to climate change issues. The construction, reconstruction, and rehabilitation of hydraulic structures are compliant with their maintenance and are performed periodically and preventively in order to achieve their required functional safety. However, over the years, investments in flood protection, i.e. the reduction of possible damage caused by the harmful effects of water, mostly implied investments in embankments. Investments in high dams are insufficient in terms of their importance, structure complexity, and failure risk.
