AFD is a concrete gravity structure consisting of two main sections, the spillway and powerhouse. The spillway with a total of 10 spill-bays, which are controlled by 32 feet high by 41 feet wide vertical steel lift gates. These gates consist of an upper and lower leaf. One additional gate is available with each leaf being stored at the top of a maintenance slot to be used during emergencies or when maintenance is required on another gate. The gates underwent inspection in 2012 which identified repairs and maintenance that were needed to ensure that the gates are in good operating condition. A contract was awarded in 2022 for the repair and maintenance of the gates. However, the rehabilitation efforts will be stopped after the return of the first rehabilitated gate has been returned to the dam. The project is seeking to fabricate replacement gates. Replacement spillway gates components include: 1. Fabricate minimum five (5) and maximum eleven (11) new vertical lift steel spillway gates offsite Including paint, non-destructive testing (NDT), seals and seal heaters, cathodic protection, wheels, dogging and latching mechanisms. 2. Fabricate two (2) new lifting beams for new spillway gates. Including paint, NDT, and three (3) electric gear motor driven actuators for latching and dogging mechanisms on lifting beam and gates. 3.
