Greetings, A few days ago I walked in the Sukabumi city terminal area, west Java. Located on the southern ring road of Sukabumi city, while doing morning exercise. Thank you Wednesdaywalk by @tattoodjay.
A terminal with a fairly large area, there are large buses and small buses that serve intercity and inter provincial passengers. The area around the terminal is a flooded area during heavy rains.
One solution to overcome flooding is the government creation of a rainwater retention pond or retention pond, located within the terminal area which functions as an open space.
I tried to see the rainwater retention pond, which was built about a years ago, the shape of the retention pond is elongated and equipped with several drainage channels up to the retention pond.
The retention pond is approximately five meters deep, and a fence is installed around the perimeter. There are floodgates to control the water pump structure is also installed to control the water flow.
Retention Ponds function as flood control, open spaces, and recreational, freshwater fish such as carp, tilapia,and other fish are cultivate in retention Ponds.
Thank you very much. __'
