Project Summary
The hazards and disaster are not area specific and their vulnerability is high in urban areas where the density of population is high. The cities in India are expanding in physical, economical and social dimensions. Thus so often these cities expose the exhaustion and limitations in accommodating services to the settlement. Lack of infrastructure amenities such as drainage, water supply, sanitation, transportation and social services lead to the decay of urban environments. The problems arising due to occurrence of some natural events and hazards multiply in the defined environment. Thus a lack of proper physical planning and the infrastructure in urban cities aggravate the severity of natural hazards and causes catastrophic loss to the human life and property. Floods can be - river-in flood, storm runoff flood, and cyclonic flood to the meteorological flood. However on average these floods have problems with variations in magnitude of severity and its impact. So, whether our current urban scenario that struggles to cop up with current issues can control such sudden natural hazards is the question of inquiry. The study is based on the rainfall runoff modeling and estimation of the selected subcatchment area of Paldi, which is on the lower gradient of the Ahmedabad city and prone to flooding in heavy rain falls. This study would particularly concentrate on urban storm water floods, which may not have severe impact but could be a threat to the future sustainability of the city. There are many examples of the city experiencing flash floods, which have eventually resulted large-scale losses to human life and property. Therefore it is highly essential to control the storm water floods in urban areas to prevent water logging, and thus modeling the existing scenario and creating multiple hour based storm events we can check whether the current capacity and infrastructure is sufficient enough to control the actual storm.

Introduction 1.1 State of the Art Urban hydrology is a specific knowledge of hydrology applied in areas with very high concentration of human activities which deal with natural process. The continuous growth of population and massive development will affect the physical characteristics of an area and change the hydrological practice. A notable aspect of urbanization is the increase of impervious surfaces, which include paved streets, roads, parking lots and roofs. High impervious surfaces are the common cause for high runoff volumes as the soil infiltration capacity decreases. Thus, the drainage system for urban areas is relatively different from natural catchments whereby it is designated specifically to remove the runoff as fast as possible so that flooding can be prevented and the negative influence on transportation is minimized. Flooding phenomena frequently occur in some cities during rainy period, which is often caused from the even terrain of the cities, the lower design standard of the drainage systems, and conduits blocked up by construction waste during urban development period. It is an important task to forecast flooding area during periods of storm, analyze potential after effect of flood disaster and decide counter measures of flood control for the cities at present. The hydrologic and hydraulic characteristics in an urban basin are far more complex than that in a natural watershed. A variety of phenomenon is likely to occur in some urban drainage systems that involve gravity flow, pressure flow, circumfluence flow, backward flow and surcharge flow. Sometimes, flooding occur in urban basins during rainy period. These methods in common used to design urban drainage system are not suitable for analyses of surcharge systems or simulation of flooding processes in cities. For example, rational formula method, isochrones method or unit hydrograph method is only used to compute flood peak discharge and flow hydrograph in design conditions for urban basins. Since 1970s, a number of mathematical models for urban storm water were set up of which some can well simulate flow hydrograph of urban drainage systems. The storm water management model (SWMM), one of the most excellent models, was developed by the Environmental Protection Agency of US in 1971. SWMM can simulate gravity flow, pressure flow, circumfluence flow, backwater flow of storm drainage systems in design conditions, and is widely used throughout the world for planning, analysis and design related to storm water runoff, combined sewers, sanitary sewers, and other drainage systems in urban areas. But little models can simulate storm water flooding of urban basins during rainy period, which do not satisfy the demand of flood prevention and the disaster reduction for the cities. Based on the analyses of hydraulic characteristics of urban drainage systems the numerical simulation techniques are used to set up a mathematical model that can especially simulate and forecast flooding processes during rainy period, which provide important information flood prevention and disaster reduction of the cities.

The low impact development (LID) approach has been recommended as an alternative to traditional stormwater design. In India research on LID practices such as bioretention, pervious pavements, and grassed swales is not much into practice, as looking to the present state of Indian cities it is a grave requirement to put these approaches in practice.

Literature Review 2.1 Urban Hydrology
Urban Hydrology is defined as the interdisciplinary science of water and its interrelationship with urban man (Jones 1971). In other words, urban hydrology is a special case of hydrology applied to cities i.e areas with high level of human interference with natural processes. Its a relativelly upcoming field and has developed fast since 1960s. The begennings of urban hydrology can be traced to the time shortly after use of automobiles became the major means of transportation. Roads were paved to facilitate travel, allowing the growth of the suburbs where the commuter escaped the congestion of inner city life. Growth of urban areas brought significant changes in physical properties of land surface increasing integrated vulnerability of inhabitants.The result was the rapid creation of large impervious areas, producing noticeable drainage problems.
Urban Hydrological System
The hydrological cycle describes different hydrological processes, various paths by which water precipitated onto the land surface finds its way to the ocean and evaporation gives moisture, thus completing the cycle. Different components of hydrologic cycle are evaporation, precipitation, infilteration, runoff, streamflow and groundwater. However, due to the effect of the urban environment, the hydrological processes are more complicated. Some of the differences are (Hall 1984)
Natural drainage systems are altered and supplemented by sewerage systems. Effects of flooding are mitigated by different schemes. Wastewater disposal scheme exists. Water is supplied from remote location.
Importance is the relative location of an urban center in the river basin of which it is a part, as well as the degree and character of its hydrological overlap with other urban centers, and thier distance from a large lake or an ocean. Because early commerce utilised waterways for transportation, th great majority of metropolises are located on or near major water bodies. Hence, they frequently occupy low-lying ground, and tend to be located near estuaries of major streams or the junction with the tributaries, or along a coast. The advantages of superior water transport, water supply and water-assimilation capacity through self purification afforded by many of these locations have since been partly offset by increases in flooding damages and pollution that have accompained more intensive urbanisation. An urban drainage storm water model can be divided into four individual parts: the precipitation input, the hydrological surface processes, the hydrodynamics of the surface flow, and finally the hydrodynamics of the pipe flow.
Hydrological Problems, Challenges and Issues of Urban Areas The following are the major hydrological problems of urban areas : Supply of clean pure drinking water. Provision of adequate flows for the disposal of waterborne wastes. Magnitude of the per capitia domestic consumption of water. Requirement of water for industrial processes, recreation, and amenity purpose. Storm water management. Heat production in urban area.

Sewerage system. Water quality. Recycling of the waste water. Sources of urban pollutants Lowering of ground water table
Hydrological Issues The major hydrological issues which are as follows: Disruption of the natural hydrological cycle due to reduction of infiltration and groundwater recharge, increase in surface runoff and flooding. Decline in water levels and possible land subsidence due to groundwater mining Determination of surface and groundwater quality. Increase pollutant loads from runoff discharges and sewage outfalls of poor quality. Leakage to groundwater from old and poorly maintained sewers. Extensive soil and groundwater contamination from industrial leakage, or spills of hazardous chemicals or poorly planned solid and liquid waste disposal practices. Increased artificial surface water infiltration and recharge from source control device leading to poor groundwater quality. Reduction in ecological habitat and species diversity of the receiving water body. Need for integrated land use and catchment planning.
Hydrological Challenges
Delivery of drinking water supply for growing cities Water for sanitation versus sanitation without water Recycling of wastewater nutrients Wastewater irrigation Storm water management and modelling and drainage Rainwater harvesting Artificial recharge of depleted aquifers Urban agriculture Recovery of resources present in solid and fluid wastes Paradigm shift from water disposal and treatment to conservation and recycling of resources. New programs like dry sanitation
A state of the art study of urban development on flood discharges revealed areas of needed research. It is indicated that too few data have been collected to describe the effect of urban and suburban development on flood runoff. It was recognised that, in general, the volume of flood runoff is increased in impervious areas which are the consequence of urban development. It was agreed that the acceleration and concentration of flood water by runoff from impervious areas, and by the concentration of storm sewers, gutters, catch basins, and channel improvements contributed most to the increased flows experienced in urban environments. Disclaimers or qualifications to further generalization were stipulated because of the throttling effect of various encroachments, e.g, loss of natural storage from flood plain development and the wide variety drainage and flood mitigation development patterns commonly encountered. Examination of available data and of the results of various studies indicates that the most dramatic hydrologic impact of urban development, and the one that has received the most Akshay Anand Faculty of Geomatics and Space Application, CEPT University Internship Programme: Indian Space Research Organization, Ahmedabad

attention, is that on peak flows in streams and storm drains. Comparative studies of urban versus rural drainage basins indicate that as the relative magnitude of flood peaks increases, the ratio of urban peak rate declines, the effect of urbanization being more pronounced for the more frequent occurrences. The larger an urban complex the greater the hydrologic region that may be impacted in the acquisition of its water supply. Base flows of streams can be raised by wastewater effluents that originated as imported water or can be diminished as a consequence of recharge denied by imperviousness or via surface water diversions. The increased volume of direct storm runoff resulting from urbanization can reduce low flows because less precipitation is available for soil moisture replenishment and groundwater storage. However, it is evident that the cumulative effects of urbanization on a drainage basin can be either a decrease or an increase in the low flows of streams. Interbasin diversions of water further complicate hydrologic patterns.
Runoff.
Off the precipitation upon a catchment area, some runs off immediately to appear in streams as storm or flood flow; some evaporates from land and water surfaces; some little evaporation; some through, interception caught on leaves of vegetation and evaporates; and some termed as infiltration, seeps into the ground. Of the infiltration a part is taken up by vegetation and transpired through the leaves; some percolates through the soil to emerge again to form springs and streams which make up the dry whether flow; a part is held by capillarity of the soil; another part is held in the soil particles by molecular action; while a small portion may penetrate into deep porous underground strata and be lost so far as the catchment area is concerned. The last three factors usually are of little or no consequence so far as the runoff is concerned. The difference between the total flow of a steam, as indicated by gagings, and the rainfall of its watershed will be the water lost by evaporation and otherwise.
Factors which affect Runoff.
The total runoff from a drainage area is made up of the direct runoff and flows from ground water sources. Direct runoff is the water that has not passed through the soil since precipitation. The ground water runoff is that which has been a part the ground water. Temperature and its variation on the watershed area will affect evaporation. The amount and type of vegetal cover affect infiltration and the loss of water by transpiration. The topography of the drainage area, its smoothness or roughness and gentle or steep slopes, affects the speed of concentration of the direct runoff and thereby causes high or low runoff rates. Short concentration periods may cause flash floods. Slower concentration allow more infiltration and greater evaporation. Natural storage in surface ponds and lakes contributes to slower concentration and greater evaporation.
Runoff Modelling.
The first step in preparing a hydrologic model is to properly delineate the drainage basin and the subcatchments within that basin. Once these subcatchments have been delineated, hydrologic parameters are assigned to each of the basins. The RUNOFF model applies a rainfall pattern to each of these small basins and calculates a time-series of stormwater runoff flows. These flows are “loaded� into the hydraulic model that routes the flows downstream.
Rainfall-Intensity-Duration-Frequency- Relationships.
The rate at which rain falls over an area and its duration are of importance for several reasons. A duration equal to the time of concentration, or the time required for the water to run from the farthest part of the catchment basin to the point in question, is critical since the shorter the duration of a rainfall the greater may be its average intensity. The greatest intensity to be expected for the critical duration therefore will produce the greatest runoff.

Chapter 3 3.1 Introduction Ahmadabad City lies between 22 55‟ and 23 08‟ North Latitude and 72 30‟ and 72 42‟ East longitude. The City has major physical feature, river Sabarmati which divides the city into two parts : eastern walled city and western Ahmadabad on either side of its banks.
3.2 Location and Climate
Ahmedabad has a tropical monsoon climate, which is hot and dry, except in the rainy season. Summer days are very hot with mean maximum temperature of 41.3 C while nights are pleasant with mean minimum temperature of 26.3 C . The mean maximum and minimum temperatures in winter are 30 C and 15.4 C respectively. The average annual rainfall of the area is 782mm, although there is a considerable variation from year to year. It occurs generally during the months of June to September. The average relative humidity is 60 % with a maximum of 80 % to 90% during the rainy season. Water logging and flooding problems: Negligence of natural drainage in the growth and development of Ahmedabad city has led to problems of water logging and flooding during the monsoons. The city experienced worst floods in 2000 when large areas of western and eastern Ahmedabad were affected.
3.3 Drainage System
Storm water drains in the city covers only 23% of the roads in the city. There are three types of drains laid in the city –RCC pipes. Box type drains and arch drains. The storm water drains discharge storm water into Sabarmati River at 42 locations, of which currently only 27 locations are functional. Storm water drains in the city are poorly developed and many parts of the western and eastern zone experience water logging problems during the rainy season. However, the walled city area does not have any problems of flooding/water logging. In the periphery the system is yet to be developed in most parts.
3.4 Topography
Ahmedabad is more or less plain area. The maximum height is 70 meters and the minimum height is 36 meters from the mean sea level. The study area lies in the south west part of Ahmedabad, which is at the downstream part and adjacent to the sabarmati river and is relatively low lying area. During higher rainfall this part of the Ahmedabad experiences problems of water loggin in several areas due to steep slopes, high density of residential area, higher imperviousness and absence of storm water channels.

3.5 Rainfall
The precipitation which starts from the last week of June extends up to the end of September. The region is a moderate rainfall zone and the normal rainfall in the area is about 25 inches. However, variations are considerable from year to year. Rainfall is both erratic and irregular. The rainfall of year 2009 is considered for the study.

Wind Speed
South west winds are at an average of 4mph and 5 to 6 knots which generally bring rainfall to the whole of Gujarat.
Density
The Land use of the studied area is largely residential areas with commercial on the streets. Due enchroachment and slum inhabitants the imperviousness of the area has drastically reduced the rainwater infiltration and subsequently increased runoff and flooding.

Chapter 4 4.1 Stormwater Management and Modeling Storm water Management Model developed by US environmental Protection Agency, is a package of models linked together and divided into a numberof blocks. It is comprehensive model covering both quantity and quality aspects. For models of the Storm Water Management, average percentage of imperviouness is the most sensitive parameter affecting the estimation of runoff amounts and because of currents indexing of pollutants to street loadings, street gutter density is also an important and sensitive parameter affecting the pollutant loadings. The EPA Storm Water Management Model (SWMM) is a dynamic rainfallrunoff simulation model used for single event or long-term (continuous) simulation of runoff quantity and quality from primarily urban areas. The runoff component of SWMM operates on a collection of subcatchment areas that receive precipitation and generate runoff and pollutant loads. The routing portion of SWMM transports this runoff through a system of pipes, channels, storage/treatment devices, pumps, and regulators. SWMM tracks the quantity and quality of runoff generated within each subcatchment, and the flow rate, flow depth, and quality of water in each pipe and channel during a simulation period comprised of multiple time steps. SWMM was first developed in 1971 and has undergone several major upgrades since then, It continues to be widely used throughout the world for planning, analysis and design related to storm water runoff, combined sewers, sanitary sewers, and other drainage systems in urban areas, with many applications in non-urban areas as well. Running under Windows, SWMM 5 provides an integrated environment for editing study area input data, running hydrologic, hydraulic and water quality simulations, and viewing the results in a variety of formats.
4.2 Modeling Capabilities
SWMM accounts for various hydrologic processes that produce runoff from urban areas. These include: Time-varying rainfall Evaporation of standing surface water Snow accumulation and melting Rainfall interception from depression storage Infiltration of rainfall into unsaturated soil layers Percolation of infiltrated water into groundwater layers Interflow between groundwater and the drainage system Nonlinear reservoir routing of overland flow Spatial variability in all of these processes is achieved by dividing a study area into a collection of smaller, homogeneous subcatchment areas, each containing its own fraction of pervious and impervious sub-areas. Overland flow can be routed between sub-areas, between subcatchments, or between entry points of a drainage system.

SWMM also contains a flexible set of hydraulic modeling capabilities used to route runoff and external inflows through the drainage system network of pipes, channels, storage/treatment units and diversion structures. These include the ability to: Handle networks of unlimited size Use a wide variety of standard closed and open conduit shapes as well as natural channels Model special elements such as storage/treatment units, flow dividers, pumps, weirs, and orifices Apply external flows and water quality inputs from surface runoff, groundwater interflow, rainfall-dependent infiltration/inflow, dry weather sanitary flow, and userdefined inflows Utilize either kinematic wave or full dynamic wave flow routing methods Model various flow regimes, such as backwater, surcharging, reverse flow, and Surface ponding Apply user-defined dynamic control rules to simulate the operation of pumps, orifice openings, and weir crest levels. In addition to modeling the generation and transport of runoff flows, SWMM can also estimate the production of pollutant loads associated with this runoff. The following processes can be modeled for any number of user-defined water quality constituents: dry-weather pollutant buildup over different land uses pollutant washoff from specific land uses during storm events direct contribution of rainfall deposition reduction in dry-weather buildup due to street cleaning reduction in washoff load due to BMPs entry of dry weather sanitary flows and user-specified external inflows at any point in the drainage system routing of water quality constituents through the drainage system reduction in constituent concentration through treatment in storage units or by natural processes in pipes and channels.

Water Logging and flooding problems: Negligence of natural drainage in the growth and development of Ahmedabad city has led to problems of water logging and flooding during the monsoons. The city experienced worst floods in 2000 when large areas of western and eastern Ahmedabad were affected. Poor Coverage: The storm water drains cover only 23% of the roads. The newly acquired areas of AMC do not have storm water drainage system because of which areas of Odhav, Naroda and Vatwa experience water logging. Infiltration of storm water into the sewerage network: Sewer system unauthorized used fordischarging storm water in absence of adequate storm water facilities in many areas. Blockage of outlets and silting of storm water drains: Of the 36 outlets into the river Sabarmati, 9 outlets are blocked. Similar blockage and silting has also been reported in the storm water drains.
Storm Water Modeling is an event based analysis method, in which several peak value and storm with respect to local climate and their highest recorded values. Based on that a storm is generated, similarly in this simulation, a storm is considered of 4hr.

4.3 Hydrologic Analysis of the Catchment Area
Pump Station
Paldi area is prone to water logging every year and it is a dire need to mitigate flooding junctions and street and to route the storm wate. Moreover storm water – not entering drainage creates of subflow below the surface of the road, pavements and forms instant pits due to sliding of land below the surface.
The pumping station on the downward slope, constantly pumps through the day and makes an average of 60,000 gallons per day to the main channel.
Main Drainage Pipe Line
The Main drainage channel follows the south-west ward slope of the city – a relatively low lying area which experiences frequent water logging in monsoon.
Tertiary Drainage Pipe line The tertiary drainage pipe in this area is further downwards towards the railway line, therefore there exists a drainage pump station which pumps the drainage to the main channel.
Drainage hierarchy of Paldi Catchment
Akshay Anand Faculty of Geomatics and Space Application, CEPT University Internship Programme: Indian Space Research Organization, Ahmedabad
Secondary Drainage Pipe Line The Secondary drainage pipe along the river side have further more downward slope towards the river, so maximum runoff is diverted into the river and runoff into the drainage account very less.

Chapter 5 Low Impact Development Introduction The low impact development (LID) approach has been recommended as an alternative to traditional stormwater design. In India research on LID practices such as bioretention, pervious pavements, and grassed swales is not much into practice, as looking to the present state of Indian cities it is a grave requirement to put these approaches in practice. The effects of traditional development practices on the hydrologic cycle have been well documented. Increases in the impervious surfaces associated with urbanization have resulted in increased surface runoff, increased runoff velocity, decreased time of concentration, and decreased water quality. The earliest documentation of increased runoff from urban areas was in the late 1800s, and urban runoff continues to be a leading cause of impairments in the present cities. Low Impact Development (LID) was piloted in Maryland ( Prince George’s County 1999) as a way to mitigate the negative effects of increasing urbanization and impervious surfaces. The preservation of the pre-development hydrology of a site is the overall goal of LID. In contrast to typical stormwater design, the LID approach advocates for more careful site design is to preserve as much o the site in an undistributed condition, and where disturbance is necessary, reduce the impact to the soils, vegetation, and aquatic systems on the site. In contrast to traditional stormwater treatment, which typically only mitigates peak flow rates, the use of LID will also help to maintain the predevelopment runoff volume. LID principles are based on controlling stormwater at the source by the use of microscale controls that are disturbed throughout the site. This is unlike conventional approaches that typically convey and manage runoff in large facilities located at the base of drainage areas. These multifunctional site designs incorporate alternative stormwater management practices such as functional landscape that act as stormwater facilities, depression storage and open drainage swales. This system of controls can reduce or eliminate the need for a centralized best management practice (BMP) facility for the control of stormwater runoff. Although traditional stormwater control measures have been documented to effectively remove pollutants, the natural hydrology is still negatively affected (inadequate base flow, thermal fluxes or flashy hydrology), which can have detrimental effects on ecosystems, even when water quality is not compromised. LID practices offer an additional benefit in that they can be integrated into the infrastructure and are more cost effective and aesthetically pleasing than traditional, structural stormwater conveyance systems. Conventional stormwater conveyance systems are designed to collect, convey and discharge runoff as efficiently as possible. The intent is to create a highly efficient drainage system, which will prevent on lot flooding, promote good drainage and quickly convey runoff to a BMP or stream. This runoff control system decreases groundwater recharge, increases runoff volume and changes the timing, frequency and rate of discharge. These changes can cause flooding, water quality degradation, stream erosion and the need to construct end of pipe BMPs. Discharge rates using traditional BMPs may be set only to match the predevelopment peak rate for a specific design year. This approach only controls the rate of runoff allowing significant increases in runoff volume, frequency and duration of runoff from the predevelopment conditions and provides the mechanisms for further degradation of receiving waters.

Cluster layouts, grass swales, rain gardens/bioretention areas, and pervious pavements all reduce the ‘effective impervious area’ of a watershed, or the area that is directly connected to the stormwater system.
1. Bioretention Bioretention areas, or rain gardens, are depressed areas in the landscape that are designed to accept stormwater. They can be used in residential and commercial settings, and are typically planted with shrubs, perennials, or trees, and covered with shredded hardwood bark mulch. The benefits of bioretention areas include decreased surface runoff, increased groundwater recharge, and pollutant treatment through variety of processes. Six typical components found in bioretention cells:
Grass buffer strips reduce runoff velocity and filter particulate matter. Sand bed provides aeration and drainage of the planting soil and assists in the flushing of pollutants from soil materials. Ponding area provides storage of excess runoff and facilitates the settling of particulates and evaporation of excess water. Organic layer performs the function of decomposition of organic material by providing a medium for biological growth (such as microorganisms) to degrade petroleum-based pollutants. It also filters pollutants and prevents soil erosion. Planting soil provides the area for stormwater storage and nutrient uptake by plants. The planting soils contain some clays which adsorb pollutants such as hydrocarbons, heavy metals and nutrients. Vegetation (plants) functions in the removal of water through evapotranspiration and pollutant removal through nutrient cycling.
2. Bioswales Bioswales or channels are adaptable to a variety of site conditions, are flexible in design and layout, and are relatively inexpensive. Generally open channel systems are most appropriate for smaller drainage areas with mildly sloping topography. Their application is primarily along residential streets and highways. They function as a mechanism to reduce runoff velocity and as filtration/infiltration devices. Sedimentation is the primary pollutant removal mechanism, with additional secondary mechanisms of infiltration and adsorption. In general grass channels are most effective when the flow depth is minimized and detention time is maximized. The stability of the channel or overland flow is dependent on the erodibility of the soils in which the channel is constructed. Decreasing the slope or providing dense cover will aid in both stability and pollutant removal effectiveness.
3. Tree-Box Filters Tree box filters are in-ground containers typically containing street trees in urban areas. Runoff is directed to the tree box, where it is filtered by vegetation and soil before entering a catch basin. Tree box filters adapt bioretention principles used in rain gardens to enhance pollutant removal, improve reliability, standardize and increase ease of construction, and reduce maintenance costs. Tree box filters decrease peak discharge by detaining stormwater volume and by increasing discharge duration. Use of numerous tree box filters in a stormwater drainage area can have an impact on total discharge energy and flow rates.
4. Permeable Pavements Akshay Anand Faculty of Geomatics and Space Application, CEPT University Internship Programme: Indian Space Research Organization, Ahmedabad

The use of permeable pavements is an effective means of reducing the percent of imperviousness in a drainage basin. More than thirty different studies have documented that stream, lake and wetland quality is reduced sharply when impervious cover in an upstream watershed is greater than 10%. Porous pavements are best suited for low traffic areas, such as parking lots and sidewalks. The most successful installations of alternative pavements are found in coastal areas with sandy soils and flatter slopes. Permeable pavements allow stormwater to infiltrate into underlying soils promoting pollutant treatment and recharge, as opposed to producing large volumes of rainfall runoff requiring conveyance and treatment.

Storm Water Management & Modelling - a study of Paldi Catchment area
Watercourse A natural or artificial channel (rivers, streams, ditches) for conveying water Weir A hydraulic structure, usually horizontal, of a predetermined height and length to control the flow of water. Wetland A continuously wet area in which the water is shallow enough to enable the growth of bottom-rooted plants. It has a requirement for a continuous base flow to maintain healthy vegetation. Treatment of stormwater can be very effective, but if used for attenuation, consideration needs to be given to the effect of fluctuating water levels on plant life. Whole life cost The present day value of total costs of a structure throughout its likely operating life (construction, operation, decommissioning).
