摘要： A flood mitigation device comprising: a lower unit comprising: an inner channel extending along a longitudinal axis of the lower unit, configured to accommodate a fluid; and an outer inlet configured to facilitate fluid access from an external environment to the inner channel. The flood mitigation device also comprises an upper unit comprising an expandable cavity configured to accommodate the fluid; wherein the upper unit is contiguously secured to an upper portion of the lower unit, thereby forming a watertight seal; and wherein the inner channel is in fluid communication with the external environment and the expandable cavity. A rising fluid level proximate the inlet is arranged to be accommodated within the inner channel and the expandable cavity. The present invention advantageously provides a watertight structure which may be submerged, unsubmerged or partially submerged in the body of water in order to prevent a rising fluid level from causing environmental damage. This structure of the present invention advantageously provides a relatively cheap and unobtrusive solution for preventing floodwaters originating from bodies of water that may be high risk.
