          A PROJECT
          Flood Risk Assessment:

          Ecofirst was appointed to carry out a Flood Risk
          Assessment Study and propose Mitigation methods
          for the project located in a flood-prone area.
          •   In the urban agglomeration, dealing with flood
             itself is quite a challenge as there needs to be
             a harmony between the built and the natural
             environment. In this case, both the projects were
             inhabited, sited in low lying areas, close to rivers
             and surrounded by Nala (streams).

          •   The study comprised of comprehensive analysis
             of various catchment characteristics based on
             data gathered from field investigations and open
             source platforms.

          •   The completed project ensured prevention of
             future losses due to flooding such as financial
             losses, property or equipment damages and
             avoiding disruption of movement.
