Based on collation of the flooding levels of the 11 storm surges since 1895 in the west coast of Bohai Bay, this paper verified and redefined the flooding levels with a probability of exceedance of 1 in 50, 100, 200... to 10 000 years. The authors indicate the height of the existing seadike is capable to defense the storm surges of 1 in 50 to 100 years. However, based on the comprehensive factors discussed in this paper, it is suggested that the seadike should be reached to +4.8 m in 2020 and +5.1 m in 2030, respectively (both the State 85 Datum).
