Summary

[edit]
Description Tainter gates are ready for review after being fully assembled at the Oregon Iron Works facility in Vancouver, Wash. Gate components are tested to ensure precise design requirements are met, so they will fit and function correctly when installed on the new Folsom Dam auxiliary spillway near Folsom, Calif. When complete, the spillway will allow operators to release water from Folsom Lake earlier and more safely during large storms to help reduce the risk of flooding for the Sacramento region.
