During construction - panels are now in place and overhead winches are being connected to panels. This allows panels to be raised and lowered depending on flow conditions.
GFA technical crews are the backbone of the program, working long, split shifts each day to maintain the fence and process each fish that passes through, sometimes over 200,000 fish per season.
GFA crews dipnet Brown Bear Creek sockeye. These sockeye are a genetically unique, river-run sockeye. GFA collects DNA samples each season to learn more about this unique, at risk salmon run.
