MOVING FISH WITH AN ASSIST FROM OBERMEYER
(Low Stress Fish Passage: An Innovative Approach For Medium-Head Dams)

The Mud Mountain Trap and Haul Facility is but one example of where Obermeyer Gates are employed at environmentally sensitive projects. The 2019 and 2020 renovation included three 13.5′ high by 30′ wide Obermeyer Gates along with supporting air compressor equipment and PLC based control systems. Completed, this project can move 60,00 fish per day and up to 1.2 million fish per year.
