- Description
- The majority of work in this project is related to the Intake Structure and Outlet Works to accommodate a future 8-meter dam raise which extends from the intake structure downstream to the outlet valve house. It also covers dam safety instrumentation and geotechnical investigation and all emergency closure gates, flow regulating valves, hydropower turbine, diesel generator, and all other ancillary equipment/structures required for proper operation of the Intake Tower and Outlet Works. Flow will be regulated through two 54-inch ring jet valves, with knife gate closures inline with the valves for emergency shut-off. Two 42-inch pipes shall be installed and capped for future municipal water supply. The new valve house will be powered by a new hydropower turbine, with a standby diesel generator located within the structure as back-up. Electrical distribution system will need to be constructed within the valve house to deliver power to the operating equipment. Contractor shall provide Interim and Final Design Services for components of the Intake Structure and Outlet Works including the intake structure downstream to the outlet valve house, including geotechnical investigation and all emergency closure gates, flow regulating valves, hydropower turbine, diesel generator, and all other ancillary equipment/structures required for proper operation of the Intake Tower and Outlet Works.

The tower shall include mechanical equipment to raise and lower a new emergency closure gate to block flow if necessary. Power for operating the equipment will be from remote terminals located at the dam end of the bridge, and provisions shall be incorporated for future ductbank from valve house to intake tower to power from hydropower turbine.
