Floods are common natural disaster occurring in most parts of the world. This results in damage to human life and deterioration of environment. In many parts of the Indian subcontinent, flooding reaches catastrophic proportions during monsoon season. For centuries, floods in the Ganga, the Brahmaputra, the Tapi basin and the Godavari basins have brought number of disasters to the inhabitants in the flood plains apart from inundating large tracts of fertile land. Surat city is one of the major important cities of Gujarat which is settle on Tapi River. It is observed that Surat is highly developed city with full of various activities going on day and night. Any natural calamity which causes loss of lives to property & infrastructure and serious impact on economy of the state. So it becomes highly necessary that past flood events must be studied and analyzed properly in order to propose new flood control systems as well as the storage reallocation and reservoir reoperation of existing ones. In present study “Simulation of the reservoir operation using daily available historical inflow” has been carried out and proposed the revised reservoir operation policy for Ukai dam.
