Design of a Boulder/Slot Fishway for the Mad River

Publication: Engineering Approaches to Ecosystem Restoration

Abstract

The Mad River flows through the Brass Mill Center, a regional shopping center developed on the site of a former industrial mill complex in Waterbury, Connecticut. As part of a project to restore and enhance fisheries habitat in this river, the design team developed a design for a naturalistic fishway. The structure is essentially a "vertical slot" fishway fabricated using boulders. A major design challenge was the evaluation of hydraulic performance of this innovative structure.
