Bompon Sub-Watershed
The flow pattern in the upstream river flow of the Bompon Sub-watershed is a dendritic
flow pattern
The dendritic flow pattern is characterized by its branches shaped like tree branches
which then join the main river, and reflect uniform soil and rock resistance.
The shape of the upstream sub-watershed is elongated
Classification of rivers in the Upper Bompon Sub-watershed, based on the classification
Kern (1994), the river is classified as a small river, because the width of the river in the
Upper Bompon Sub-watershed is 1.1 m.
River morphometry is obtained from measurements of the width and depth of the river
THE PHYSICAL CHARACTER OF THE UPSTREAM SUB WATERSHED OF BOMPON
The physical character of the river in the upstream part of the Bompon watershed has a relatively small
channel dimension with a river width of 1.1 m and a shape like a rice field irrigation canal. There are two
types of rivers in the research location, tributary rivers and main rivers.
Tributaries are seasonal in nature where the water flow occurs during the rainy season, some tributaries
are only available when the intensity of rain is high for several days.
The tributaries meet each other and form a slightly larger river channel which is called the main river. The
main river is fixed, where the river flow is available throughout the year.
The river water is used by local residents as a supply of irrigation water for rice fields which are located
on the edge of rice fields or moor or mixed gardens which are bordered by hilly slopes.

ECO-HYDARULIC ON THE UPPER SUB-WATERSHED OF BOMPON
River management with ecohydraulic techniques has the purpose of preserving the ecological components in the river environment in a
hydraulic engineering.river ecology components in a hydraulic engineering. The ecological and hydraulic components in a
River have a mutually influential relationship. Cliffs that are near the river at the research location are prone to scouring by river flow,
erosion and soil mass movement, so there is a need for engineering around the river cliffs.
River cliff protection buildings are usually used in conventional technical protection.
Eco-hydraulic offers engineering to strengthen these cliffs, one of which is the cliff-holding method. The cliff retaining method used for
the research location is by planting cliffs, cliffs and flat fences, so that it is expected to increase river cliffs and to overcome erosion and
soil mass movement (Maryono, 2008).
CLIFF PLANTING METHOD
Cliff planting has a function as cliff protection and flow retention so
that the speed of river water flow which erodes the soil on the river
bank will decrease and flooding in the downstream part of the river can
be reduced.
Plants that are suitable for implementing cliff planting are bamboo and
banana. Short and small types of bamboo can be planted in relatively
small rivers, while tall and large-trunked types of bamboo can be used
on large river banks. Bamboo plants have an ecological side where
bamboo plants have the ability to maintain environmental balance
because of their root system that can prevent erosion and can regulate
water systems (Sukawi, 2010 in Huzaemah et al., 2016).

Another alternative to the use of ecohydraulic is to use a roll core. The function of the bund terrace is to hold the runoff rate and increase
water absorption into the soil. The mounds are reinforced with terrace reinforcement plants, where the aim is to increase the effectiveness
of the ridge terraces in tackling erosion and flow surface. The terrace of the bund can also be planted with cash crops, for example katuk,
cayenne pepper, and so on. Gulud terraces are suitable to be applied to land with a slope of 10-40%.
A terrace is a soil and water conservation building that is used to shorten the slope of the slope by excavating and filling the transverse
slope which is equipped with a water drain, which reduces the speed of surface flow and increases water infiltration, so that soil loss will
be
reduced (Sukartaatmadja, 2004 in Sibua et al., 2013). Guludan is a pile of soil whose function is made lengthwise according to the
direction of the contour line or cutting the slope (Arsyad, 2010 in Sibua et al., 2013).
