The issue of changes in natural conditions, Pangkal Pinang City as a downstream area of the Batu Rusa watershed (DAS) with a city center whose city morphology is in the form of a basin has resulted in Pangkal Pinang City receiving surface water runoff from upstream areas plus land deforestation due to illegal mining in upstream rivers, which is directly adjacent to Central Bangka Regency. Which causes excessive sedimentation and drainage channels that are not well connected, resulting in high rainfall intensity and uncontrolled capacity under the retention basin causing a rise in water level which then flows into the retention pond and the Rangkui river caused excessive water runoff resulting in flooding that spread to residential areas and the center of Pangkal Pinang City. In this study, it was carried out with the aim of formulating design ideas in the Kacang Pedang retention pond area by implementing the Water Sensitive Urban Design as an approach to urban water management, especially in raw water sources. The design method used is a fragmental which begins with collecting issues related to regional design and finally produces a simulation of regional design. The design area has an area of 94 hectares with activities that will be accommodated are recreational activities, living, and education. The design of the area is based on urban design elements combined with normative principles, namely land use, building mass intensity and arrangement, circulation and parking, pedestrian paths, open spaces, marking systems, preservation, and supporting activities. In addition, the design simulation will also focus on the water management system in the area with the WSUD technical approach which is directed as a form of water control in the area retention pond, with efforts to minimize the impact of flooding as well as a water tourism recreation area.
