Document Description: Garden Highway Mutual Water Company is proposing construction and operation of a fish screen system on the existing Feather River Intake, located on a pump intake channel of the Feather River (collectively referred to as the Feather River Intake and Pump Station). The project would include a fish screen on the diversion structure and a fish and debris deflector across the opening of the pump intake channel to help guide fish past the entrance to the pump intake channel. The project would also involve periodic maintenance dredging within the pump intake channel and the Feather River opposite the mouth of the pump intake channel.
