ABSTRACT
One-dimensional network model studies were carried out to assess the effect of reclamation of land in the flood plain of Kasadi River for the development of New Bombay. The rise in high flood level in river branches due to reclamation of land was predicted. Flood moderation by improving channel sections and providing holding ponds was also studied. The model was developed to take care of storage effect of flood plain, narrow bridge sections, branching of channels and tributary inflow.
