2. Death of Fish and Existing Facilities
Operation of the Snare Hydroelectric Facility and associated dams have the potential
to kill fish through entrainment and impingement at trash racks, turbine mortality,
stranding and barotrauma.
The proponent describes risks of entrainment and impingement at the intake
including contact with the turbines and extreme and rapid changes in pressure with
no data available on entrainment or impingement and no information to indicate if
this or fish mortality occurs.
