We have performed several projects with the forestry service and other groups
involved in the marine & forestry industry. We performed a design-build repair on
the Indian Creek Dam & Fish Ladder near Gold Beach, Oregon. The footprint of
the dam sets on a sliding fault where the rock hillside actually moves
approximately 4” per year. We designed the dam gates in such a way that they
could be shortened as necessary as the mountain moved towards the stationary
fish ladder area. This would protect the integrity of the gate system and still not
jam up and bust during high water-flow times. We also installed a zinc coating
as a passive cathodic protection system rather than galvanizing the ladder and
gate.

We have also performed several miscellaneous repairs and upgrades to boat ramps and docks.
