Recent development booms in urban watersheds have increased impermeable areas and brought about an increase of peak flood. Eventually, some people living in the lower area of an urban watershed, very often and seriously, have suffered form inundation. In this study, for minimization of inundation in urban watersheds, the operational criteria for pump stations are suggested. At first, ILLUDAS has been selected as a runoff model which can explain the past precipitations. Secondly the operational criteria for pump stations could be suggested by working out an operational criteria for pump stations could be suggested by working out an operation program from the relationship between pumping capacity and accumulative hydrographs, and from the Intensity-Duration-Frequency relationship.Keywords : urban watershed, peak flood, runoff mode, operational criteria for pump stations
