30 CFS Dual Modular Design

Badger Creek

Badger Creek

This Farmers Screen helped to open 6.1 stream miles for safe fish passage and serves over 3,600 acres of farmland.

About

The project addressed issues with anadromous/ESA species, irrigation, and sediment and debris.

The project involved the creation of an upgraded diversion structure, the design and installation of an upstream fish passage structure and a modular Farmers Screen. All of the components had to be pre-fabricated in segments that could be transported to the construction site via three miles of irrigation canal perched on a very steep slope.
