The key components of a flood management and prevention system will

incorporate

• Digital terrain model of the river basin

• Current land use information

• Hydraulic simulation of all drainge infrastruture

• Basin modelling & operational flood forecasting

Final output----------Drainage and remedial plan.

Usable water resources for domestic, industrial and agricultural use will be

Increased and sustained by a sound land use policy

The combination of landform, climate, vegetation and kind of agricultural

Development can be used to predict the effects on water resources when changes

are made in the use of land

Final output---------Appropriate mix of forestry, agriculture and urban and

industrial Development.
