Barrier Type: Bottom mounted steel electrodes on a wooden deck.
Pulsators: 6ea. - 1.5KVA POW
Status: A retrofitted older electric fish barrier designed to block upstream migration of Atlantic Sea Lamprey into spawning habitat. The electric fish barrier is used in conjunction with a pumped fish bypass channel and a sea lamprey trap. The barrier reduces the need for expensive Lamprey killing chemicals in the headwaters. There are currently five Smith-Root electric fish barriers in Michigan.
