2. Methodology:
2.1 General:
Drainage system of Chalna Municipality is assessed
through a sequence of analytical processes. The
drainage system of Municipality and its response to
hydrology govern the planning for its storm drainage
system. The overall planning processes comprise:
collection of survey data of infrastructures/feature,
contour, land-use and image for a preliminary
conceptual understanding of the Municipality system
with a review of reconnaissance and other available
reports; identification of rivers/khals surrounding the
Municipality and collection of data to understand the
hydrological response of the Municipality; assessment
of effective range of land levels which have to be
considered for planning process; making of an
intensive field visit for identification of possible
outfalls and drainage routes in verification of the
preceding planning processes; planning of drains &
zones with identification of outfall locations/ reaches;
and finally storm runoff assessment using empirical
formula. Integrated study of drainage dynamics in
consideration with gravity drainage for the proposed
drainage improvement system is made by developing
drainage model for the Municipality. Model is applied
to assess the extent of improvement of gravity
drainage. The approach comprises development of
Rainfall-runoff model for hydrological analysis and
correlating the proposed drainage system with the
existing river model to assess hydraulic performances.

5. Conclusions:
Analytical study of drainage system followed by the
assessment of its performance in aid of model
application is found to be a suitable and convenient
method adopted for of the Municipality. S1, S1_1, S2,
S2_1, S3, S3_1, S4, S5, P1, P1S1 and P1S2 are the
major drains which are proposed for the storm
drainage of the Chalna Municipality. P1, P1S1, P1S2,
S1, S2, S3, S4 and S5 drainage systems have priority
needs while S1_1, S2_1 and S3_1 drainage systems
are proposed in view of near future needs for the
Municipality. Raising of low land with earth fill
above the flood level is a pre-requisite for the land to
be brought under gravity drainage. It is recommended
that such land is raised to the similar level of high
land (not less than 2.5 mPWD) of the Municipality.
Lack of social awareness is a huge concern for
smooth functioning of the drains. Dumping of solid
wastes should be prevented to keep the drain in
flowing condition. Trash racks and silt traps shall
have to be provided at regular interval or selected
locations during construction of drains. The existing
Drains and also those will be constructed shall have to
cleaned at regular interval. Maintenance and cleaning
of drains shall have to be done at least once in every
year specially before starting of monsoon season. The
Municipality authority should monitor the water level
at outfalls, record the drainage congestion area of
each significant storm and maintain the existing river
and khal so that natural channels/ drains are not
encroached anyhow. The proposed drainage system is
found adequate for storm drainage of the
Municipality, and is recommended for detailed study
and necessary modification in consideration of social,
environmental, technical, economical and institutional
constraints.
