Floods can damage buildings and mainly houses which are made of wood, which in turn will cause many to be displaced.

Measures might include using small barriers in ditches and fields, or notches cut into embankments, to divert the water into open land. Letting pools form outside the main channel of a river means the water is temporarily removed from the main flow - reducing the power of the floodwaters.

During the heavy rains, trees can reduce the risk of flooding. Trees can prevent soil erosion, reducing sediment going into rivers and increasing water absorption into the ground. This slows rainwater running off into swollen streams and helps lower peak flood levels.]]> 2021-12-30 07:40:50 UTC https://padlet.com/s2129055/sjd80s5o2r8qjlf1/wish/1968590965 https://padlet.com/s2129055/sjd80s5o2r8qjlf1/wish/1968594296 without being able to function properly due to broken components, these will not be able to help prevent flash floods]]> 2021-12-30 07:46:09 UTC https://padlet.com/s2129055/sjd80s5o2r8qjlf1/wish/1968594296 https://padlet.com/s2129055/sjd80s5o2r8qjlf1/wish/1968594438 Builders must acquire permission before buildings are erected. That will ensure that waterways are not blocked. Also, drainage systems must be covered and kept free from objects that chock them. This way, water can quickly run through if it rains and minimizes any chance of town flooding. Drainage systems should also be covered to prevent litter from getting into them.]]> 2021-12-30 07:46:22 UTC https://padlet.com/s2129055/sjd80s5o2r8qjlf1/wish/1968594438 https://padlet.com/s2129055/sjd80s5o2r8qjlf1/wish/1968594745 these are used to direct the flow of waters and can be used to trap out water]]> 2021-12-30 07:46:50 UTC https://padlet.com/s2129055/sjd80s5o2r8qjlf1/wish/1968594745 https://padlet.com/s2129055/sjd80s5o2r8qjlf1/wish/1968596696 dreging rivers remove the slit which consists of fine sand, clay and small particles of rock and increases their capacity to carry water downstream]]> 2021-12-30 07:49:40 UTC https://padlet.com/s2129055/sjd80s5o2r8qjlf1/wish/1968596696 https://padlet.com/s2129055/sjd80s5o2r8qjlf1/wish/1968596875 As for urban development, it is important to have urban planning where the purposes of every part of land in urban area should be determined and carried out strictly.
