Abstract

One major floods problem in Miu River is huge amount of sediment which transported along the river channel. The decreasing of river capacity has been analysed and some channel courses changes also detected. These problems caused river morphological change and it is necessary to find comprehensive solution which not only decreasing the flood damage but also consider appropriate approach to natural environment. The complexity of these problems and possible solutions to overcome flood and sedimentation problem were investigated. Increasing of river capacity by channel excavation, protecting riverbank with revetment and construction of sediment control facilities were proposed as main solution. However, it is necessary to evaluate the effectiveness of these efforts by analysed sediment control facilities location and dimension of the structures. Some alternatives were investigated in order to find most effective solution to solve flood and sedimentation problem in Miu River.
