1 Part-A: Existing Conditions A3 RIVER BASIN AND RIVER CHANNEL A3.1 Basin The Limboto-Bolango-Bone (LBB) basin has a total catchment area of about 27 km 2 and is shaped rectangle extending about 1 km from east to west, and about 3 km from north to south. The LBB basin consists of the Lake Limboto basin (89 km 2 ), the Bolango basin (49 km 2 ), and the Bone basin (1,32 km 2 ). General basin map with river system and basin areas at major sections are shown in Figure A3.1.1 and overall longitudinal profiles of the Bone system and the Lake Limboto system in Figures A3.1.2 and A Administratively the LBB basin is located mostly in the south-eastern part of Gorontalo Province (2,4 km 2 ) and small portion in the south-western part of North Sulawesi Province (3 km 2 ). Kabupaten Gorontalo and Kota Gorontalo of Gorontalo Province and Kabupaten Bolaang Mongondow of North Sulawesi Province are related to the basin. Their administrative boundaries in the LBB basin are shown in Figure A (1) Lake Limboto Basin The Lake Limboto basin shares western half of the LBB basin with a total catchment area of about 89 km 2. The major tributaries of the Lake Limboto are the Biyonga (66 km 2 ), the Meluopo (27 km 2 ) and the Marisa (64 km 2 ) from the north, and the Alo-Pohu, which consists of the Alo (342 km 2 ) from the north-west and Pohu (124 km 2 ) from the south-west. There are numerous small tributaries from the southern hill. (2) Bolango Basin The Bolango originates in the Mt. Lowulowu. It passes through the mountainous areas towards south, joining the Bongo (81 km 2 ) and the Mongiilo (262 km 2 ) on the left, until it reaches at the Lomaya weir. Basin area of the Bolango is 388 km 2 at the Lomaya weir. The Bolango joins the Palanggua (58 km 2 ) at the downstream of the Lomaya weir and flows down to the plain land on the northern part of Gorontalo city. Passing on the west of Gorontalo city, it joins the Tapodu, outlet channel of Lake Limboto, and empties into the Bone on the south of Gorontalo city. Basin area of the Bolango is about 49 km 2 in total A3-1

2 Part-A: Existing Conditions excluding that of Lake Limboto. (3) Bone Basin The Moloti which originates in the Mt. Unggiango and the Bulawa which originates in the Mt. Sula meet together and become the Bone in the east of the LBB basin. Passing through the mountainous areas towards the west, the Bone joins the Bulahu (73 km 2 ), the Olama (73 km 2 ) and the Bunano (169 km 2 ) on the right. After flowing towards the west, it reaches at Alale weir. The total basin area of the Bone is around 1,6 km 2 at the weir. The Bone further runs toward west on the south of Gorontalo city and joins the Tamalate (7 km 2 ) and the Bolango on the right. Just at the downstream of the confluence with the Bolango, the Bone changes its direction towards the south, and finally discharges into the Tomini Bay. The total basin area of the Bone basin is about 1,32 km 2 excluding those of the Bolango and Lake Limboto. A3.2 Principal Channel Features system in the plain area of the LBB basin is shown in Figure A Based on the results of latest river survey conducted by the Study Team, channel characteristics of the major river channels in the Study Area were studied and the results are shown in Table A The channel characteristics include the riverbed slope, river width, mean depth, cross-sectional area, channel slope and existing carrying capacity. The channel characteristics are also illustrated for the selected principal rivers as shown in Figure A They are summarized as follows: 1) Bone : bed slope : 1/18~1/25 width : 12m to 22 m Carrying capacity : 21 to 87 m 3 /s 2) Bolango : Lower Reaches: mouth to confluence of Tapodu bed slope : 1/14 width : 34 m Carrying capacity : 175 m 3 /s A3-2

3 Part-A: Existing Conditions Middle Reaches: upstream of confluence of Tapodu bed slope : 1/96~1/15 width : 6m to 9 m Carrying capacity : 2 to 3 m 3 /s 3) Tamalate ( in Gorontalo City): bed slope : 1/12 width : 2m Carrying capacity : 5 to 6 m 3 /s A3.3 Flood and Sediment Disasters (1) Type of Disaster According to the information obtained through field reconnaissance and public consultation, flood, bank erosion and sedimentation are the major types of the disaster in the Study Area. Flooding: Flooding over the riverine lands is the typical disasters observed in the areas along the river course. These flooding occur because of shortage of channel capacity. Poor drainage due to low-lying topography, natural and artificial channel constriction, and backwater from the main river cause the stagnant of flooded water and local storm water, bringing about inundation disaster. Bank erosion: Bank erosions are observed in places of the rivers in the Study Area. Bank protection works were implemented to protect residential areas, trunk roads, etc., although these are implemented as remedial measure with less consideration from basin-wide viewpoint. Sediment: Devastation of watershed due to illegal logging or shifting cultivation increases sediment yield in the watershed and causes sediment deposits in the river channels, farm lands and lake in the lower reaches. A large part of sediment flows in the Lake Limboto and decrease its storage volume. Consequently a haul of fish in the lake decreases and flood regulation function of the lake lowers. (2) Inundated Area and Causes Major inundated areas in the LBB basin are southern part of Gorontalo City, middle A3-3

4 Part-A: Existing Conditions reaches of the Bolango, Limboto City, western part of the Lake Limboto, and Isimu area as shown in Figure A Brief descriptions are given on these major flood prone areas as follows. Among these the disasters in the southern part of Gorontalo City are most serious. Southern Part of Gorontalo City: In the southern part of Gorontalo city, the Bone, the Bolango and the Tamalate rivers join. Water level is raised due to backwater at the confluence of these rivers and inundation occurs frequently. High tide and sedimentation at the river mouth aggravate the situation. Middle Reaches of Bolango : Inundated area extends along the Bolango from the confluence with the Mongiilo to the northern part of Gorontalo city. terrace is formed in this stretch, and flood flow runs along the Bolango between the river terraces. Limboto City: Limboto city is inundated by flood water from the Biyonga and Meluopo rivers. The flood flow is interrupted by Gorontalo-Isimu road. Western Part of Lake Limboto: Western part of the Lake Limboto is inundated due to rising water level of the lake. Inundation in this area lasts for a long time, since the capacity of outlet channel from the lake is small. There would be enough time for evacuation because water level rises slowly. Isimu area: Isimu area where the tributaries gather is suffering from inundation due to shortage of carrying capacity of river channel and low-lying topography in the area. A3-4
