Dual-Purpose Flood and Drought Relief System
The present invention relates to a dual-purpose flood and drought relief system for redirecting water from flooded areas to areas in need of water due to lack of supply and/or drought. The system is comprised of at least one pump that can be placed in a body of water. When flooding occurs, at least one water sensor is activated, such that the pump begins pumping flood water through the system. The system may be comprised of at least one filter that is preferably a multi-layered carbon filter. Using a hydroelectric and magnetic compass, the system redirects the flood water through a tubing/piping to deliver water to drought-stricken locations. The tubing may be installed in a plurality of locations such as, but not limited to, highways, roadways, railways, bridges, etc., to easily transport water using the system.
