Outflow from the new facility will be regulated through a new fish attraction water conduit by a radial gate and an emergency gate. The radial gate will be used to control flows through the new fish facility, and the emergency gate will be used during routine maintenance periods or in the event of an emergency. The gate opening in the fish attraction water conduit is 5-6 wide x 8-0 high for both gates and the opening will be located at the bottom of the new fish passage facility. " REQUIREMENT: Offerors must have a positive, proven track record in the industry.

The gate manufacturer shall have a minimum of fifteen (15) years of experience in design and manufacture of hydraulic gates of comparable complexity and hydrostatic loading for civil works projects. The gate assemblies provided by the contractor will be installed by others during construction of the new fish passage facility.
