| dc.description.abstract | With the rapid development of both industry and commerce, as well as the sustained high economic growth, large edge areas of cities have become residential districts and nature resources have been overused. The government has to invest a huge amount of resource in flood prevention whenever deluges and typhoons invade. Agriculture, fisheries, animal husbandry, housing and economic activities all suffer terriblely from deluges and typhoons. For instance, Typhoon Jangmi caused estimated losses in agriculture product value and civil facilities reaching NT$ 2150 million. Because of this, proposing a regional disaster prevention plan that satisfies county and local conditions is in urgent need.
Recently, Taoyuan county government intend to promote “Taoyuan Aerotropolis,” which would increase the population of Taoyuan county to over two million in the near future. The neighbor towns near Taoyuan Aerotropolis would also become prosperous, including Luzhu township. In the future, the regional disaster prevention plan in Taoyuan, a municipality-to-be, the county or towns will be under the challenge of the policies of significant investments in constructions. Since water conservancy administrator do not participate in the metropolitan discussion, the arrangements of city plan often lack of flood issues resulting in over developments that cause flood whenever typhoons come. Therefore, the flood issues that caused by metropolitan developments have to be taken into consideration in both county and town policies. Accordingly, only when the concept of city adversity prevention is merged in a regional disaster prevention plan can the plan satisfies the local conditions.
In the view of the importance of flood remediction program of regional disaster prevention plan, flood remediation program is placed to the central consideration in the relationship between levels of county and towns. This study intends to identify out the problem , and apply the inundation potentials made by National Science and Technology Center for Disaster Reduction to the metropolitan flood prevention issues as well as the regional disaster prevention plan. And to provide the Suggestions are provided in order to remediate the flood disaster.
