Floods as natural phenomena exist and will continue to occur. No manmade
project can stop a flood from happening, but there are several effective methods to reduce
its risk, aftermath and consequences. This paper considers a novel formulation of the network
interdiction problem with application on controlling floods. The aim of this work is to
identify those arcs prone for flood, and implementing flood-control projects on these arcs,
while required budget for deriving all these operations is bounded. the model is tested on a
real-world case in Tabriz-Iran, and results are visualized.
