A$STRACT
STORM .ATER DRAINAGE REFERS TO THE NET.OR/ OF THE DRAINS LAID FOR THE PURPOSE OF CARRYING A.AY THE E0CESS RAIN .ATER, STREET .ASHINGS AND ROOF .ASHINGS, SO AS TO CLEAN THE ROADS OF THE STATIONARY STAGNANT .ATER. IN THE $AC/DROP OF THE RECENT UR$AN FLOODS E0PERIENCED IN SURAT, MUM$AI AND OTHER INDIAN CITIES THE ROLE OF THE STORM .ATER DRAINS HAS ASSUMED A VERY CRITICAL ROLE IN THE UR$AN LANDSCAPE. A LOT MORE ATTENTION IS $EING GIVEN TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF PROPER DRAINAGE NET.OR/S CAPA$LE OF MEETING NATURE1S .ORST POSSI$LE DEMANDS. IT IS A DEVELOPING AREA IN THE FIELD OF ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEERING TODAY AND A LOT OF .OR/ IS $EING DONE IN DEVELOPING SUSTAINA$LE UR$AN DRAINAGE.

.HAT IS STORM .ATER2 Storm4ater is a term !sed to descri*e 4ater that ori inates d!rin precipitation e/ents. It may also *e !sed to apply to 4ater that ori inates 4ith sno4melt or r!noff 4ater from o/er4aterin that enters the storm4ater system. Storm4ater that does not soak into the ro!nd *ecomes s!rface r!noff1 4hich either flo4s directly into s!rface 4ater4ays or is channeled into storm se4ers1 4hich e/ent!ally dischar e to s!rface 4aters. Storm4ater is of concern for t4o main iss!es'

one related to the /ol!me and timin s!pplies81 and

of r!noff 4ater 7flood control and 4ater

The other related to potential contaminants that the 4ater is carryin 1 i.e. 4ater poll!tion.

A storm draina e system is a net4ork of str!ct!res1 channels and !nder ro!nd pipes that carry storm 4ater 7rain 4ater8 to ponds1 lakes1 streams and ri/ers. The net4ork consists of *oth p!*lic and pri/ate systems.

ANCIENT HISTORY Since the era that h!mans *e an li/in in concentrated /illa e or !r*an settin s1 storm4ater r!noff has presented itself as an iss!e. S!ch d4ellin styles can *e enerally related to the Bron<e A e 4hen considera*le amo!nts of imper/io!s s!rface emer ed as a factor in the desi n of early h!man settlements. Some of the early incorporation of storm4ater en ineerin is e/idenced in ancient 5reece. Archaeolo ical st!dies ha/e re/ealed !se of rather sophisticated storm4ater r!noff systems in ancient c!lt!res. =or e)ample1 in Minoan .rete appro)imately >### years *efore present cities s!ch as +haistos 4ere desi ned to ha/e storm drains and channels to collect precipitation r!noff. At .retan -nossos storm drains incl!de stone lined str!ct!res lar e eno! h for a person to cra4l thro! h. An early specific e)ample of storm4ater r!noff system desi n is fo!nd in the archaeolo ical reco/ery at Minoan +haistos on .rete. ?ther e)amples of early ci/ili<ations 4ith elements of storm4ater drain systems incl!de early people of Mainland ?rkney s!ch as 5!rness and the Bro! h of Birsay in Scotland.

STORM .ATER MANAGEMENT


Storm4ater mana ement is a f!ndamental consideration in the plannin and desi n of !r*an de/elopment. By considerin storm4ater mana ement at the initial desi n phase it is possi*le to ens!re /ia*le storm4ater mana ement sol!tions that are compati*le 4ith other desi n o*,ecti/es for the site. SITE ANALYSIS The site@s topo raphy 4ill ha/e a si nificant impact on the layo!t desi n. This is *eca!se storm4ater draina e systems almost al4ays rely on ra/ity. The layo!t of the de/elopment m!st *e confi !red so as to allo4 e)cess storm4ater to *e ra/ity3drained to a draina e system. Topo raphy 4ill also affect r!noff onto the site from s!rro!ndin properties. 0)istin o/erland flo4 paths sho!ld *e identified and retained. Where modifications to these are !na/oida*le1 they sho!ld *e desi ned so as to maintain e)istin hydrolo ical conditions. Draina e easements1 nat!ral 4aterco!rses and flood prone land sho!ld also *e identified and considered in the desi n process. It needs to *e *orne in mind that draina e easements containin !nder ro!nd pipes can operate as o/erland flo4 paths d!rin intense rainfall e/ents. B!ildin s m!st *e kept clear of draina e easements to ens!re p!*lic safety and to allo4 maintenance access. .onsideration also needs to *e i/en to local soil conditions. Aele/ant factors incl!de a*sorption capacity1 erosion potential1 soil salinity and the possi*ility of soil contamination from past acti/ities AD3OINING PROPERTIES ?ne of the *asic principles of storm4ater mana ement is to a/oid ad/erse storm4ater impacts on other properties. .aref!l consideration m!st *e i/en to controllin s!rface r!noff and s!*soil draina e to ad,oinin properties. The redirection and concentration of storm4ater flo4s onto nei h*orin properties may constit!te a Bn!isance@ at common la41 i/in affected o4ners a le al ri ht of redress. PU$LIC SAFETY Storm4ater r!noff from rare and intense storm e/ents can pose serio!s risks to life and property. It is essential that the desi n of o/erland flo4 paths1 on3site detention stora es and other storm4ater mana ement meas!res meet rele/ant safety criteria for pedestrians1 /ehicles and property dama e. =encin and landscapin sho!ld *e desi ned so as to minimi<e the potential for o/erland flo4 paths to *e o*str!cted d!rin rare and intense storm e/ents.

ESTIMATING STORM-.ATER RUNOFF


.alc!lation of the rate of storm34ater r!noff is important in determinin the si<e of inlets1 drains1 se4ers1 etc. All portions of the storm draina e system m!st *e desi ned to handle the peak flo4 anticipated !nder certain desi n conditions. The most 4idely !sed method for estimatin peak storm34ater r!noff is called the rationalformula method. This form!la ass!mes 7a8 that the rate of storm34ater r!n3off from an area is a direct f!nction of the a/era e rainfall rate d!rin the time that it takes the r!noff to tra/el from the most remote point of the tri*!tary area to the inlet or drain1 7b8 that the a/era e fre9!ency of occ!rrence of the peak r!noff e9!als the a/era e fre9!ency of occ!rrence of the rainfall rate1 and 7c8 that the 9!antity of storm 4ater lost d!e to e/aporation1 infiltration1 and s!rface depressions remains constant thro! ho!t the rainfall. The coefficient of runoff is a coefficient 4hich acco!nts for storm34ater losses attri*!ted to e/aporation1 infiltration1 and s!rface depressions.
