Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Floodplains are prone to flooding and the risk of contamination of soil and water by sewage in a sewage treatment plant can be high. Therefore, a sewage treatment plant is not a suitable land use for floodplains. The other options can be suitable if managed properly. Grazing land for livestock can help maintain the land and prevent development that would increase the risk of flooding. A municipal park can provide recreational opportunities but should be designed to minimize impacts on the floodplain. A golf course can be designed to include wetlands and other natural features that mitigate the impacts of development on the floodplain.
