Process – Start to FinishProcess – Start to Finish

• Design ideas• Contact Hydrolox and purchase materials• Overcoming problems during fabrication• Input from engineer• Changes during fabrication• Finding a site for installation• Installation• Monitoring and evaluating screen operation

• Need for other types of POD screens

• Idea to build a horizontal plastic belt screen

• Fabrication crew talking about ideas and materials

• Jim Jones contacted Hydrolox and ordered plastic belt materials after discussions with their Engineers

• Harvey Goddard assigned to take lead on project

Monitoring and EvaluationMonitoring and Evaluation

• 2.47 cfs design flow

• Hydrolox Series 1800 mesh top with 37% open area

• 1.10 cfs measured flow

• Water level was to low to accurately evaluate both sweeping velocity and velocity through the screen
