The Polder area is vulnerable to flooding caused by highwater levels during high tide and more during heavy rain. Climate changewhich may cause high sea level forms a serious threat for the coastal areasin Semarang as delta area. Objectives of the paper are to create causerelation flowchart, to analyse flushing zone, and to plan implementationand maintenance of flushing system.
