1. Main assumption; let the river be the natural river. Can the rivers be restored to their natural character?
2. Reconnection with the Red River hydrology will allow for dilution of waste water and flood control of the Hanoi region.
3. Demolition of Ba Xuan and Phung Dam in the Day River, and Lien Mac Gate in Nhue River, would connect the rivers to Red River and make their former flood plains, defined by dikes and natural height differences and wetlands again under rule of the seasons.
4. Day River: The floodplains will be landscaped. Cut and fill actions, moving soil from one place to another, will occur within the flood area. This will change the floodplains. Protection of certain towns and villages. Land taken from the floodplains can become new development areas. The dike will become more than a line. Rather, it will be a landscaped element, sometimes broad, sometimes narrow.
5. Nhue River: The design will focus on restoring some of the landscape qualities to the city. Breaking away some urbanization, and reinforcing existing open areas around the river will provide the city with agriculture, recreation and nature.
6. Red River: the dike system around Hanoi is largely in place but can be altered at certain locations where no urbanization is occurring. Here, the dike will also be made into a broad, stepped levee. It will consist of different terraces, suitable for different kinds of plants and agriculture.
