Abstract

This paper deals with flood mitigation measures by only one side dike on almost primitive rivers. If those rivers are left at existing conditions, the lands might be improved at random with irrigation channels and drainage channels constructed without any relation to flood mitigation, at which conditions it will take a lot of cost and time to execute effective flood mitigation works. Here, it is proposed to be beneficial to make a flood mitigation plan by one side dike at early stage development of land through two examples on the Apure River and the Chama River in Venezuela.
