DESCRIPTION

Description

Operational improvements include replacing filling culvert valves and machinery (Stoney Gate valves), installing a PIT tag reader in large lock filling culvert, rehabilitating the large lock gate, finding a permanent solution to the saltwater drain intake and diffuser well, and redesigning the smolt flume.

Opportunities, Constraints, and other Considerations

Updated project description in 2015 to align this project with current improvements being implemented or targeted by Corps. A PIT tag reader was installed in the large lock filling culverts in 2017, as was a prototype for a new smolt slide.
