I am writing a literature review on current technology to prevent fish and eel entrainment at pumping stations. I would really appreciate it if anyone could give me tips as to which are the better ones and the brands. I also need to look at strike rates, external and internal damage and the alternative measures. I am aware of bubble/ strobe and acoustic versions of screens but I am not having great luck in finding suppliers!
Thanks, Evie
have you tried to contact companies selling pipes or fish stuff such as smith root (http://www.smith-root.com/) or tetra tech (http://www.tetratech.com/) ?? They may have other contacts to propose

National Marine Fisheries Service folks in Santa Rosa, CA, might have this type of information in their salmon Biological Opinions. You might try calling their office.
I'm trying to stick to Europe as there a few similarities between the UK and other countries, but thanks very much! Ill keep this in mind
Hi Evie,
I've attached some documents that might be helpful ?
- the report inbo.r.2011.38 is in Dutch but has an English summary. The attachment in this report describes a couple of examples (=Bijlage 3: translated: "solutions for fish migration at pumping stations") --> page 73 to 80. These examples are in Dutch too but you can definitely find key words here + 'links to solutions' are given.
- In the Netherlands: try and search on 'STOWA' and 'pumping stations' /
+ fish flow innovations
(FYI I've attached 2 papers)
