Towards new ecological drainage system in Malaysia

100%

Abustan I. , Wahid N. A.

nr 1-4

This article discusses the new Urban Stormwater Manual for Malaysia (MSMA) (DID 2000) to counter the current and major urban problems such as flash flooding, water pollution and ecological damage, urban slope failures, and sedimentation. MSMA uses control-at-source approach instead of rapid disposal as a tool to curb generation of pollutants and to be environmentally friendly. In this article, the authors describe a pilot study designed and constructed in the University Science Malaysia following the MSMA’s eco-drainage guidelines. The study found more than 60% reduction in capturing runoff volume. In addition, the peak flow was reduced to more than 50%. The positive results from the study indicate that this manual can be used to solve the problems outlined earlier. Specifically, it shows that MSMA’s guidelines are very much suitable to the humid tropical condition of the Malaysian environment.
