Abstract: This paper shows that the storm water back flow problem under high flood situation in river Tapi is the major storm water drainage problem, when drainage outlets are closed for Surat city. It indicates that storm water drainage system of Surat city during flooding condition is not much effective at some low lying areas of Surat city. The feasible solution of this problem is achieved in this case study by designing some general as well as systematic drainage solution & also appropriate design of storm water drainage system of desire working objective. Aim of the research is begins by examining the performance of current storm water drainage system & the conditions that lead flooding problem at some low lying critical areas of Surat city. It is important that all storm water drainage system are designed to a set of criteria that are subjected to economic, social & environmental point of view. One of the most factor in designing sustainable storm water drainage system is the physical storage & also conveyance within drainage outlets. That needs to be provide to achieve flood control & minimize the pollution impact of urban storm water runoff of Surat city, including solution of water logging problem at critical locations of Surat city during peak rainfall days. The study shows some appropriate solution of this problem with the new drainage system which is sustainable as well as capable to drain storm water from the low lying areas of Surat city.
