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
