Excellent Drawings Clearly Show Fish Passage Remediation Techniques

Our friends in New Zealand have developed some pen and ink illustrations of the FlexiBaffle installed in a culvert to improve fish passage. There is also an illustration of a modified FlexiBaffle installation equipped with spat rope. This type of application is intended for passage of weak swimming species such as eels.

Shane Scott is the principal of SSA Environmental, a Vancouver, Washington-based firm dedicated to protecting fish and other aquatic organisms at bridges, culverts, hydroelectric and diversion dams, municipal water systems, irrigation canals, and pump stations. He leads the development of FlexiBaffle, a flexible retrofit culvert baffle that restores fish-friendly passage (aquatic organism passage) inside existing culverts where a permanent cast-in-place baffle isn't practical. Shane works with state departments of transportation and resource agencies to bring practical, near-term fish-passage solutions to aging culvert infrastructure.
