Safe Passage
Past studies have indicated that the existing juvenile fish bypass system at the second powerhouse located at the Corps of Engineers' Bonneville Dam on the Columbia River...

Rock Dam Revitalization
Sometimes restoring an area to a natural appearance requires a little artificial help. When the city of Longmont, Colo., began creating the St. Vrain Greenway, a park and recreation area...

Energy and Water
Sustainable Development
This proceedings, Energy and Water: Sustainable Development, contains papers presented at the 27th Congress of The International Association...

Spawning a Hydroelectric Plant
A hydroelectric facility which utilizes fishway attraction water on the Columbia River between Washington and Oregon will tap a neglected source of power and save many endangered fish...

Three-Dimensional Numerical Model for Fish Bypass Studies
This paper describes a numerical model developed for evaluating different options for fish bypass systems at Wanapum Dam on the Columbia River, WA. The model predicts the complex patterns...

Surface Oriented Fishway and Fish Guidance Curtain
We, the the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Walla Walla District, are developing a juvenile salmonid surface bypass and collection prototype for Lower Granite Dam. One of the more promising...

Developments in the Use of Infrasound for Protecting Fish at Water Intakes
Attempts to protect fish at water intakes with sound generating devices have been ongoing for decades. Past results have been equivocal. However, the recent availability of high energy,...

White River Fish Screen Project?Hydraulic Modeling
In 1983, Puget Sound Power and Light Company (Puget Power) proposed in a license application to FERC for the overall White River Project replacement of the existing fish screens constructed...

Engineering Features of the Red Bluff Research Pumping Plant
In 1995, the construction of the Red Bluff Research Pumping Plant (RBRPP) was completed. The pumping plant is a research facility for evaluating the biological/engineering features of...

A Surface Collection Design Approach on the Lower Columbia River
Surface collection and bypass of downstream migrating juvenile salmon has the potential to help improve the survival of the Columbia River salmon population. However, surface passage on...

Surface Bypass-Collector Concepts and Performance
Surfacetype bypass collectors and concepts are described. Biological and engineering requirements to pass juvenile salmonids at Snake?Columbia River dams are presented. The components,...

Results of Field Evaluations of the New Modular Inclined Fish Diversion Screen
The Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) has developed and biologically evaluated a new type of fish diversion screen known as the Modular Inclined Screen (MIS). The MIS is designed...

Chandler Canal Fish Screen Facilities
Diversions from rivers must be protected from negative effects on migratory and non-migratory fish species. Diversions to canals often have to be screened to prevent removal and loss of...

Mitigation of Predation at a Juvenile Bypass Outfall Site
Reducing predation at an outfall has become an increasingly important consideration in the design of a juvenile salmonid bypass system. To minimize the exposure juveniles have with predators...

Sediment Transport Modeling for the Glen-Colusa Irrigation District Fish Screen Modifications
The Glen-Colusa Irrigation District (GCID) pumping plant is located on an oxbow of the Sacramento River approximately 100 miles north of Sacramento (Figure 1). The existing fish screen...

Juvenile Fish Separator Design
Separation by size of downstream migrant juvenile salmonids at hydroelectric projects in the Columbia River basin is an integral part of transportation and bypass programs. However, separation...

White River Fish Screen Project Planning and Design
In 1983, Puget Sound Power and Light Company (Puget Power) submitted a license application to FERC for the overall White River Project. One of the elements of the project application was...

Comparison of Water Backwash and Brush Cleaning Systems for Vertical Panel Fish Screens
Vertical plate fish screens have been installed at a number of locations within the Pacific Northwest The vertical orientation of the screen panels requires screen cleaning systems designed...
