<br />001259 <br /> <br />2 <br /> <br />2. The questions of benefit -- Who are the true beneficiaries <br />of urban drainage works? Can benefits be realistically <br />assigned to remote areas of the community simply on the pre- <br />sumption that urban drainage provides general city-wide <br />benefits? <br />3. The questions of hydrologic criteria -- What design storm <br />should be used? What method of computing changes in watershed <br />runoff should be used? <br />4. The questions of interjurisdictional responsibility -- Can <br />an effective drainage program be developed for a multijuris- <br />dictional watershed?, What regulation techniques (regional <br />planning, intergovernmental agreements) are necessary to <br />implement a multi-jurisdictional program? <br />5. The questions of financing -- Where will the initial funding <br />come from to begin the drainage management program? How <br />will the major and minor facilities be financed? <br /> <br />Objective <br />The objective of this report is to develop a readily implementable <br />drainage and flood control management program for the mitigation of <br />development-induced drainage impacts. To accomplish this objective <br />the uncertainties listed above must be clarified. The writers have <br />grouped these uncertainties into the three major elements of any <br />drainage management program: 1) the Technical element which establishes <br />the method of flood hydrology calculation, 2) the Financial element which <br />establishes the methods for drainage and flood control cost calcula- <br />tion and cost allocation, and 3) the Regulatory element which establishes <br />the enforcement mechanism of the drainage management program. <br />
