Necessity of the increment of the milk and meat production along with other agricultural products has caused the need to engage in an intensive agricultural use of new land, including flood areas that have been drained through the construction of polder systems. A total number of protective systems, fencing drained land from the influx of surface water compose over 3,900 miles of dikes. Nowadays reclaimed lands compose more than 220 hectares, equipped with polder system with mechanical water lift. The main challenge of the improving the operation of polder systems is the timely and full implementation of works on capital, emergency and current maintenance and technical care of reclamation network and buildings located on it. Border dikes appear the main elements of the polder system, and the efficiency of their operation ultimately depends on the parameters of the cross-sectional area of the single dike. The method of economic assessment of engineering decisions during the reconstruction of dikes is proposed. Different variants relating to topping of dikes depending on the maximum water level in the middle part of the river Pripyat have been considered.
