In Doyogena town water drainage system is the main problem of the community in their daily life. However, the drainage situation and the maximum runoff in the area are not estimated. This study aims to assess the drainage condition of the town and thereby estimate the maximum peak discharge using best-fit probability distribution function. Climate data, field survey and secondary data were used for analysis of this study using GIS and remote sensing for driving intensity duration and frequency relations and computing the hydraulic performance of the EDS of the town. The main finding of this study indicated that high problem of water drainage system in Doyogena town due to many long-lived challenges such as lack of enough water flow lines, less focus given to rehabilitate roads and lack of awareness about prevention of dry wastes and so on. Additionally; a researcher used both quantita.. View More»
