Documented outages totaled more than 100 h, representing less 0.001% downtime since installation. It is nearly certain that allowed immigration by undesired fish(es). Immigrations occurred when were operating according design criteria indicate do not totally block passage upstream-migrating fish. proximate sources barrier outage included component damage lightning strikes...
