The Engineering Response to Flooding 1. Inland Flooding – Ohio River

What do we do? 1.Understand the underlying geology 2.Calculate probability of an event 3.Estimate the severity of possible effects 4.Establish risk to populations & environment

What do we do? 5. Reducing the risk A.Avoidance B.Building codes C.Evacuation plans D.Removal of endangered structures E.Protective engineering

Avoidance / Removal

Cincinnati Street Intersections Affected by Floods of 50 Feet or Less Street 1Street 2Covered at gage hieght (ft) Eldorado AvenueHarbor Street44.8 Delta AvenueWool Street48.7 Croslin StreetWaits Avenue49.4 St. Peters StreetHumbert Avenue49.4 Panama StreetWaits Avenue49.8 Setchell StreetHumbert Avenue50

Building Codes – Elevate Above Flood Level Newly Built Riverview East Academy Buildings – Kellogg Ave

What do we do? 5E. Protective engineering 1)Rebuild Wetlands 2)Retention Dams 3)Impoundments 4)Levees & Floodwalls 5)Barrier Dams

Wetland Restoration Miami–Whitewater Forest

Retention Basins Dam on Creek Road – Sharonville

Impoundments Dam on West Fork of Mill Creek – Winton Woods

Artificial Levees 1997 Flood on Ohio River contained by Newport Levee

Barrier Dam Major elements of Cincinnati Flood Control System – Confluence of Mill Creek and Ohio River Flood Wall
