Civil engineering (General) Rapid urbanizations and its consequent increase in impervious surfaces and changes in land use generally resulted in problem of flooding and heavy pollution of urban water system and other receiving waters. Urban drainage practice and control philosophy has been based on solving localized floods by transferring excessive flows into the drainage systems downstream. The consequence of removing the stormwater from the land surface so quickly is to increase volumes and peak discharge, overloading the drainage system. This causes severe flooding to downstream areas and a threat to the ecosystem and environment. Since 2001, Urban Stormwater Management Manual for Malaysia (MASMA) was introduced by Drainage Irrigation Department of Malaysia and approved by the Cabinet for the application to replace the earlier manual for storm water management in urban areas.
