WR2 - Wallowa River at rkm 32
Status: Active - Non-OperationalGeneral Operational Period: Year Round
Start Date: 1/1/2019 12:00 AM
WR2 is a tandem array in-stream detection sytem located in the Wallowa River at approximately river km 32 just upstream of Lower Diamond Road bridge near the town of Wallowa, OR. A total of 8 HDPE antennas (2 sets of 4 in parallel) span approximately 21 meters river channel. WR2 was installed on August 2, 2018 and is operated by the Nez Perce Tribe Grand Ronde Supplementation Monitoring and Evaluation Program. The site is powered by a thermal electric generator fueled by a 300 gallon propane tank. Remote communication is provided by satellite phone modem. Data collection started on October 23, 2018.

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.

| 7/27/2023 10:00:00 AM | SiteDown |
Instream antennas 01, 02, 03, and 05 that remained were removed from the river for antenna/exciter connector upgrade. A new site located elsewhere in the Wallowa River will be installed in fall of 2023. |
| 6/2/2023 11:00:00 AM | SiteUp |
Master controller was reinstalled June 2, 2023 thus collecting data again. |
| 5/26/2023 12:00:00 AM | SiteDown |
Master Controller is not functioning properly and was pulled from the site and to be delivered to Biomark for repairs |
| 2/16/2023 12:00:00 AM | SiteUp |
Antennas 1,2,3, and 5 functional on October 15, 2022. All other antennas were removed due to scouring and damage from high water events in June 2022. WR2 will be moved in 2023 to a new site when flows allow instream work to be completed likely late summer or fall. Site is operating continuously without disruption through February 16, 2023. |
| 6/28/2022 2:08:00 PM | General |
Through highwater, in June, the WR2 interrogation site has had several components stop functioning, likely reducing the site's efficiency. Currently, only antennas 1, 5, and 6 are operational. |
| 3/16/2021 3:27:00 PM | General | Wallowa River 2 (WR2) PIT array converted to a solar/ TEG hybrid on March 16, 2021. WR2 was turned off during construction approximately 4 hours. WR2 is running continuously without disruption through March 27, 2021. |
| 1/4/2021 5:14:06 PM | General | WR2 cellular modem stopped functioning in mid-August 2020. WR2 sustained damages to IS1001 reader canbus cables on June 5, 2020. Antennas 3,4,6,7 and 8 stopped functioning on June 5, 2020. Repairs were made November 18, 2020 to antennas 6,7 and 8. Final repairs to antennas 3 and 4 IS1001 readers will be accomplished in early January 2021. WR2 is operating without disruption through January 4, 2021. |
