Document Description
The proposed design consists of lowering the existing uncontrolled spillway to increase discharge capacity and installing 8.5' tall Obermeyer Spillway Gates that when lowered will simulate a new ogee spillway with a crest at elevation 296.3 feet. Obermeyer Spillway Gates are comprised of a row of bottom hinged steel gate panels supported on their downstream side by inflatable air bladders. By controlling the presure in the bladders, the water elevation maintained by the gates can be adjusted within the system control range (full inflation to full deflation).
