- HaNoi capital of Vietnam- Located in Red river Delta.- Area: 3.324,92 km2

- Population: 6.450.000 (2009).- Red river (the second largest river of Vietnam) flows throught Hanoi city, come into the sea with annual capacity (60 billions m3)

- The city belows the water level- HaNoi is prevented by a solid dykes system. The dike system in Ha Noi has never been broke, even in big flood years 1971, 1996 or during the war

Total length Dyke : 3500 km LOW DELTA97% of delta regions with dyke < 9 m 72% of delta regions with dyke < 3 m 58% of delta regions with dyke < 2 m Height in Hanoi: 15 m

Dyke system in Ha Noi can stand for the flood level 13.5 m, higher than III alert : 2.5m

Ubarn flood in HaNoi can be devided into two categories 1. Local flood: very hight rainfall intensity occure and generate higher surface run –off that is in excess of local drainage capacity. Urban Flood and Inundation will happen

InundationInundation

2. Riverini flood: heavy rainfall at upstream, big flood upstream happened and after that the watel level at downstream increase rapidly.

Climate change in Hanoi

Dute to Climate change and global warming, HaNoi city may effect more big flood from upstream and heavy rainfall in city.

The temperature in Hanoi rises up from 2000-2009

Maximum total rainfall in day at Ha Noi rises up from 2000-2009

Total rainfall in 6 hour at Meteorological stations in HaNoi has been increased for 10 years.

- Infuture, from 2010-2100, the temperature will increase 3o, total rainfall in dret season increase 20%, and in dry season decrease 40%

Ubarnization, population growth and flood in Hanoi

- In 10 years recent, the population of HaNoi go up very quikly.-The boom of urbanisation has led the city a giant contruction field and inefficient solid wastes proceesing and consequencyly lead to inundation and stagnage of under ground water.

- The rainfall runoff happen qickly exceed the capacity of HaNoi’s drainage

-Landuse: Many pond and low land areas or small lakes regulation were replaced or narrowed by construction and building which leads to the reduction of water restore capacity.

Depth in undation from 0.3-0.5m

Some serious flood features in Hanoi city in recent times

-Because of climate change, The intensity per hour and total rainfall in a day at Hanoi trend to increase. The inundation will occurred more than usual and takes long time.

- From 30 October to 1 November 2008, the extremely heavy rains over 500-600mm were recorded in Hanoi area (3 days). The rain in Hanoi was concentrated in a short period with the highest intensity in more than 100 years passed. -Deep inundation about 1,5-2,5m during 5-10 days in Hanoi. -10 People died in this flood.-Total Points inundation in HaNoi are about 30

Boating in Ha Noi city in 2008

Inundation from 0,5m-1,0m, many areas from 1-1.5m.

The rainfall over 100mm caused inundation in Hanoi with deep about 0,5-1,0m.-The duration of inundation: 1days

Inundation 17/8/2009

- On the morning, 13 July 2010, from 6.45 Am to 10 Am, A heavy rainfall occurred. Total rainfall recorded in the central of Ha Noi from 100 mm- 153mm (3 hours). - There are 23 points inundation from 0.3 m -1m, especially many main streets at center HaNoi.

-3 People died in Ha Noi in this inundation.-Duration of inundation: 5 hours

Street or River?

Some main reasons of HaNoi inundation1. The old and low capacity of underground sewage irrigation

cannot afford to discharge water when rainfall is higher than 172mm/2 days (86mm/1 days)- Stage I of the Hanoi drainage project (supported by JICA). But infact, many heavy rain occurred in short time with total rainfall is higher than 172mm.So, Ha Noi is always flooded

Inundation occurred in HaNoi X>86 mm/day

2.Because of the ubarnization, landscape change by contruction. Surface runoff on the road appears earlier.

3. HaNoi haven’t got an ubarn flood management system and decision maker. The contaction between National Met-Hydrological Forecasting service and Some oganization (responsible for water resources) is not available.

Current status drainage of Hanoi

Four companyies have been established to assit the responsibility water resources.- Hanoi water Business Company, responsible for management, operation of water supply in urban areas of Hanoi city.- Hanoi sewerage and Drainage Company, responsible for operation and maintenance of the sewerage and drainage system- Environmental Company: collection and processing of domestic water - Design Copany for ubarn Public work, carriout all the design work for distribution pipeline and home connections

Current status drainage of Hanoi

Drainage system in Hanoi include water from rainfall and wastewater.

Current status drainage of Hanoi

Downtown of HaNoi city: 1. The main drainage directions are To Lich river and Nhue river.+at To Lich basin: Pumping water to Red river by Yen So station with capacity 45 m3/s; Dong My station and throught Thinh Liet Dam.

Yen So station with 11 water pumps

Downtown of HaNoi city :+ at Nhue basin: Pumping water to Nhue river by Dong Bong, Xuan Dinh, Thanh Binh station with capacity 23 m3/s (while need 114 m3/s)

Measures to mitigate the Hanoi ubarn flood, inundation and climate change adaptation in Hanoi

1. Structural measures:

Some results of strutural measure for ubarn flood in HaNoi

4 big reservouirs system upstream Hong river delta have reduced the volume of flood and maximun of watel level at HaNoi station in flood.

Thac Ba reservouis operated (0.5 bil for flood control)

Hoa Binh reservouis operated (3 bil for flood control)

TuyenQuang res operated (3 bil for flood control)

Son La operated (3 bil

for flood

control)

Investment project for Irrigation in Ha Noi

1.The stage I of Irrigation project in Ha Noi from 1998-2005, Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) funded :

+ Resolved the inundation in HaNoi with the rainfall less than 172 mm/2days (50mm/2h)

+ Built the drains through the dike 45m3 / s; discharged into the Red River channel 90m3/giay; Yen So lake regulation 3.78 millions m3.

+ Dredging and river embankment 4 main small rivers: To Lich, Lu, Set and Kim Nguu (33km).

2.The stage II of Irrigation project in Ha Noi from 2008-2011, Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) funded:

3. The project "Construction and renovation of three pump stations and drainage Co Nhue, west of Hanoi Dong Bong" by the Belgian Government funding has been approved by the city allocated to Sewerage Company Hanoi investor. (Co Nhue pump will be built with a capacity 12m3/s, Dong Bong I, Bong Dong II pump is 9 m3/s in 2012)

Forecasting and warning inundation in HaNoi

Foreign Country:

-Project: Water quality monitoring work under dry and wet wether conditions in the downtown of Hanoi city, Dr. Hiroaku Furumai, Research Center of Water Environment Technology, University of Tokyo.Pilot Point is downtown of Ha Noi, simulated the inundation in 2003 and 2008.
