There are no detection data available for the diversion screen detectors between 14jan08 and 05feb08. Water diversion at Feed Canal was shut down on May 22nd 2008. Both PIT arrays (near the headgate and diversion screen) were left operational until June 3rd 2008 to account for fish passage during canal drainage. Contact William_Simpson@fws.gov for additional operational details. |
| 2007 | 1/1/2007 12:00 AM | 1/1/2008 12:00 AM | Feed canal was at least partially dewatered between 1/24/07 and 2/7/07. The canal was dewatered on April 5. Detection activity resumed on December 11. |
| 2006 | 12/5/2006 9:00 AM | 1/1/2007 12:00 AM | First year of operation. The detector was activated on December 5, 2006, but the canal was dewatered until December 9. |
Configuration
Configuration metadata includes details about the equipment used at the site to detect and record PIT tags. A new configuration sequence record is created when equipment is added or removed from the site and the period of time it was active. A configuration sequence without an End Date is currently active.

| 1/9/2024 2:30:00 PM | SiteUp |
Headgate antenna A6 reinstalled during break in canal diversion. |
| 12/7/2023 12:00:00 PM | SiteUp |
Headgate antennas A1-5 operational. Antenna A6 is not installed, removed for repair. |
| 12/5/2023 12:00:00 PM | SiteUp |
Canal gates were opened. Screen antennas (B1-5) and Bypass (01) are operational. Headgate transceiver (A0) not operational. |
| 5/1/2023 3:02:00 PM | General |
Headgate (A0) and Screen (B0) transceivers shutdown. Bypass antenna 01 will continue to operate. |
| 4/7/2023 12:00:00 AM | SiteDown | Feed Canal stopped diverting water this week. Most of the diverted water inside the canal drained from Feed Canal on 4/7/2023. The headgate is almost completely shut, only allowing a trickle of water through to keep the canal wet, thereby allowing any remaining fish to exit the canal via the juvenile bypass. The site will not start diverting water again until late 2023/ early 2024. |
