  9. Causing Analysis (2) • Rapid economic development • Rapid growth of Population • Rapid changes of Land use due to urbanization and infrastructures construction 45000 40000 35000 30000 25000 20000 15000 GDP and Financial Revenue (Billion RMB) GDP Financial Revenue 10000 5000 0 1966 1969 1978 1981 1993 1996 2008 1960 1972 1975 1987 1990 2002 2005 1963 1984 1999 Year

  10. Common featuresofurbanization • Urbanization rate rising from 20% to 40%, the UK spent 120 years, France 100 years, Germany 80 years, the USA 40 years, while China took only 22 years. • During such rapid process, underground infrastructures as drainage system were always being ignored. The governors of cities have to pay more attention to some critical issues such as housing, traffic jam, power supply, water supply, and so on, taking the so called policy “on the ground priority”. 1 0

  11. UrbanFloodsDamagesIncreased inChina A series of large cities suffered by severe flood in recent years: Nanjing, Beijing, Shanghai, Wuhan, Gangzhou, Fuzhou, Intra-urban flooding occurred in Beijing in July 10, 2004 Shenzhen, Xian, Hangzhou, Jinan, Fluvial flooding, Wuzhou, Guangxi, June 22, 2005 Zhenzhou,Chongqing, Chengdu… Wuhan June 18 2011 Guangzhou,May 7, 2010 Flash flood occurred in Jinan in July 18, 2007

  12. OnJuly21,2012,Beijingwas struckby heavyrainstormagain. The day is as dark as the night. Severe traffic jams occurred, and large number of people plugging on the way. Max. rainfall: 460mm ; and 128.9mm/hr Ave. rainfall: 63 mm;

  15. Coping Strategies (1) • The investment has been increased several fold in enhancing • flood control system by comprehensive measures. • Formed a new thinking to promote a harmonious relationship between man and nature in water governance for the sustainable development since. • To promote the “two shifts” in flood control and drought relief affairs, i.e. shifting “from flood control to flood Management” and “from simplex drought-fighting to comprehensive drought management”. • A series of measures have been taken to enhance the • emergency response system and capacity building. • Taking the people's livelihood related water issues as a more • prominent and top-priority tasks. • 15 1998 2000 2003 2006 2007

  16. Coping Strategies (2) • In 2009, 200 million Yuan RMB was invested in the development of non-structural measures for early warning of flash floods in 103 pilot counties, which increased to 500 in 2010. The number is expected to increase up to 1,836 in 3 years. • In the beginning of 2011, the No 1 Document issued by the Central Government aimed to accelerate the reform and development of water governance. • 16

  17. Coping Strategies (3) • The input for water security and sustainable utilization will be multiplied by the governments at all levels, i.e. to invest 400 billion Yuan RMB on average per year in the 12th and 13th Five-year Plans (2011-2020). • The National Master Plan for the Integrated Management of Medium and Small Rivers, the Reinforcement for Unsafe Reservoirs, and Prevention and Comprehensive Treatment of Flash Flood and Mountain Disasters have been discussed and approved by the State Council in early April 2011.

  48. Conclusions In Urban Area, rainfall is localized, it makes the flooding issue more severe and give more pressure for infrastructure 1 Precipitation is one of very important driven forces for the change of eco system 2 Integrated Water Resources Management/LID might be the solution to restore the original hydrologic cycle and relief part of the pressure to our infrastructure 3
