<![CDATA[Medan Belawan, especially Sicanang Village, is a coastal area suitable for ponds. To replace pond water, the existing water must be drained first, so it's important to assess the land's drainage capability when selecting pond locations. This study aims to predict drainage ability by measuring the drainage depth (D) in pond channels at five observation stations. Using field surveys and both primary and secondary data, the study compares the results with criteria for aquaculture ponds. The findings show that Stations I (D = 55 cm), II (D = 46 cm), IV (D = 51 cm), and V (D = 39 cm) fall under Class 2 (D 30-60 cm), indicating they can be used for ponds since they can drain water by gravity, though not completely dry. Station III (D = 26 cm), classified as Class 3 (D < 30 cm), is unsuitable for ponds due to poor drainage and is better used as conservation land.]]>
