Preliminary Review and Analysis of Flood Control Project Evaluation Procedures
PRELIMINARY REVIEW AND ANALYSIS OF FLOOD CONTROL PROJECT EVALUATION PROCEDURES.
Author: N. V. Arvanitidis
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Flood control
Languages : en
Pages : 131
Book Description
The study clarifies the economic consequences and effects of programs designed to protect or otherwise manage flood plains. A firm basis is established to appropriately distinguish between the source of change of a flood plain development from its economic effects. The study makes the following major findings: Where the development in the flood plain will be the same with and without the project, benefits attributable to the project will equal total damages reduced. Where there is project induced growth, the benefits attributable to the project are equal to the net increase in productivity of the economy due to the relocation of activities both inside and outside the flood plain. Benefits from project induced growth (so-called 'land enhancement' benefits) can be measured by the difference between the net income (profits) of activities which move into the flood plain with protection and the net income they could earn outside the flood plain. In the absence of direct observation of change in net income, benefits from project induced growth can be measured in terms of simulating damages reduced to new activities that would locate in the flood plain with protection.

A Methodology for Planning Land Use and Engineering Alternatives for Floodplain Management
Author: Reuben N. Weisz
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Floodplains
Languages : en
Pages : 382
Book Description
This research presents a computer-based scheme for evaluating land use and engineering alternatives for flood plain management and includes a test application. The management alternatives considered in the report include spatial and temporal distribution of urban land uses, site elevation through dirt fill, flood proofing, open space, public land acquisition and engineering measures. A linear programming approach is employed for the study. (Modified author abstract).
