Floods resulting from storms and heavy rainfall are occurring more and more often due to climate
change. However, since most settlements were built next to water, flood protection measures are still
important. The same applies to Puconski potok, which can flood during heavy rainfall. Therefore,
various measures were discussed and analyzed in this graduation thesis. Rain gardens and dry retention
reservoirs were discussed and analyzed. The case of maintenance (mowing and arranging the stream)
was also taken into account. Stream maintenance was considered with precipitation with a 10-year return
period, and the impact of the dry retention reservoirs and rain gardens with precipitation with a 100-year
return period. Rainfall-runoff HEC-HMS model was used. The results of the analysis showed that the
most appropriate measure for precipitation with a return period of 100 years is a dry retention reservoir.
The impact of the rain gardens was too small, as there is not enough urbanized areas in the basin. The
maintenance of the stream (mowing and arranging) is very suitable for precipitation with a return period
of 10 years, because after analysis we noticed that the regular maintanence can be the difference whether
the stream floods or not.
