At present, Tipar rivermouth is in unstable condition. The mounth often move from one to another, and it is often disturbed by sand spits that close the mounth during dry season. this condition reduces the capacity of the river and consequently causes flooding in the low area during the early wet season. To alleviate that problems several studies have been conducted, and the measures have been proposed. Due to a shortage of funding, the proposed design need to be reviewed and an alternative design has to be proposed. The alternative design should match the objective of the project in term of functionally as well as structural stability. This paper discussed and reviewed the proposed design and suggested a new alternative to meet the objectives of the project.Nur Yuwono
