Abstract

Nowadays, management of surface runoff and reuse of wastewater are among the main concerns of urban managers and designers. The LID-BMP approach seeks environment-friendly development in runoff management. The application of these methods, in addition to the possibility of reuse of runoff in non potable uses  such as agricultural and industrial uses, will also reduce the environmental contamination of the soil and groundwater resources.Reuse of runoffs  and attempts for water recycling are considered among the development goals of Tehran. This research first used the runoff curve number (CN) method to determine the volume of runoff and flood-prone areas considering the land uses at a macro scale for District 1 of Tehran Municipality. By using topographic contour lines, rivers in the district, the volume of runoff and cumulative nodes, the Watershed of the Darband River bordered in District 1 of Tehran was determined at the micro scale. Finally, fuzzy logic and the analytic hierarchy process in the GIS software environment considering drainage networks were used to find the optimum locations for the biological retention cell systems. In all, 12319.23 square meters are suggested for embedding these systems. Moreover, results of the sensitivity analysis in exclusion factor method revealed that the land use factor has high priority and impact in selecting suitable locations to embed and establish this system. So especial considering on land uses is vital and expected in urban runoff management.
