View Upstream
Upper powerhosue area as seen from across the river. The car parking
area is shown in the upper left, distribution line in in the center
as well as the whole right side training wall. The river and dam
apron are all about 4 - 5 feet deep between here and the water release.
It is a little deeper to the right of this picture and about 6 feet
deep just to the left, downstream.

Wide
Angle or Spillway and the Upper Power House Area
The upper power house
turbine would be just off the training wall directly behind and
to the right of the furthest dark green bullard.

Upper
Powerhouse Area in Profile
The upper power house
area is dead center below the walkway1. The upper power house would
be built on the training wall forming a new training wall but out
of the storm flow between the right of the river release valve chamber
and the dam.

The River
Release Penstock Coming out of the Dam
The River Release water
comes out of the dam, in a pipe through two piers and angles down
the face to the new valve chamber. The flow gauges are below the
catwalk between the two piers. The upper power house would fill
this picture to the spillway edge on the right and below the walkway.
The slope is about 65 degrees toward the river.

The Elbow
This elbow would be changed
into a "Y" and the new branch come up into wall to under
the photographer. The brown band in the pipe is an expansion joint.

The Float
House
The penstock to the lower
powerhouse would branch up through the top of the training wall
and to the right of the float house. The upper powerhouse design
would place the new powerhouse the right of the center of this picture.
The powerhouse is to be built on the wall and dam slope on the edge
of the flow when the drum gates are opened.

Diversion,
Barge and Intake Area
The intake for the river
release is on the bank side of the dam to the left of the round
dam pier, next to the little floating barge. The new trash screen
would extend just about along the white barge line between the diversion
intake to the left and the round dam pier to the right. There is
little trash in this river, and the barge suffices. What is shown
on the log boom is many months of accumulation.
