Purpose: review the problems of operating and managing flood control systems in Algeria, which are of great importance for the security and economic development of the country. 

Discussion. The issue of protecting lands in Algeria from floods (linked with climate change in the country) and the process of the country adaptation to natural disasters (floods) is considered. An analysis of measures to improve water discharge and water distribution systems was conducted. The issues of application of engineering solutions – dams, gates, reservoirs, the use of hydraulic turbines on them (to ensure a stable energy system) and problems associated with their operation were studied. 

Conclusions: the use of flood control systems in Algeria makes it possible to create a sustainable ecosystem for reducing flood risks; maintaining infrastructure ensures the protection of society from disasters.
