Flood control and safety evaluation of Banqiao reservoir

The hydrological data series from 1951 to 2007 were adopted to analyze and evaluate the flood safety in the Banqiao Reservoir. The flood process and the designed values of inflow flood parameters were estimated. The maximum water levels of the reservoir under different frequencies were calculated and the flood control capacity of the reservoir was rechecked. The results indicate that the flood control capacity of Banqiao Reservoir satisfied the standard requirements. And the flood control safety of Banqiao Reservoir is grade A.
