Abstract

A mixed integer programming screening model is formulated to be used in flood control and related land use planning in Puerto Rico. The model gives some preliminary answers to the questions of what river control devices should be used in the basin such that flooding is controlled, population requirements are met, and multiple objectives for preferential land use, damage aversion and structural cost minimization are optimized. The model is designed to be used in conjunction with catchment simulation models. After the model is formulated it is applied to a hypothetical river basin and the results discussed.
