2015 2/13/2015 12:00 AM 9/1/2015 12:00 AM Channel was dewatered February 24-March 10. Channel was dewatered for the year on September 1.
2014 3/17/2014 12:00 AM 12/15/2014 12:00 AM Site was dewatered August 31-November 13
2013 3/1/2013 12:00 AM 10/31/2013 2:05 PM Channel was watered down between September 1 and October 11. It was operated intermittently from October 11-31 primarily at night to facilitate USACE repairs and PIT tag anntenna testing.
2012 3/19/2012 7:18 AM 9/16/2012 12:11 AM The channel watered up on March 19 and was dewatered on September 16.
2011 3/3/2011 7:20 AM 9/1/2011 7:30 AM The B2CC was open from 0731 until 1547 on 09 February to flush debris; the PIT tag detector was not active during this brief interval. B2CC watered up for two days, March 3-4, for kelt fallback testing; the BCC transceiver was active during these tests. The B2CC flume was then dewatered from March 4 until March 14. The BCC channel was dewatered for the season on September 1.
2010 3/14/2010 6:45 AM 8/31/2010 3:00 PM The corner collector flume watered-up for the 2010 season on March 14. It was shut down for approximately 20 hours from 10:40 on March 16 until 7:00 on March 17. The flume was dewatered for 54 hours from 6AM PST on April 20 until noon (PST) on April 22. The flume was closed for 20 hours from April 26 at 12:30 PM (PST) to April 27 at 9:45 AM due to a broken BGS cable and no boat protection. The flume was dewatered at the end of the spill season on August 31.
2009 4/3/2009 6:30 AM 9/3/2009 8:00 AM The BCC flume watered up on April 3 and operated without operation until Sept. 1, when dewatering activities began. The flume was fully dewatered on Sept. 3.
2008 3/6/2008 12:00 PM 9/1/2008 6:50 AM The Bonneville PH2 Corner Collector channel (B2CC) watered-up briefly a few times between late February and early March to pass debris, but was not operated consistently, nor was the transceiver initialized, until March 6. The Corps regularly dewatered the B2CC between March 6-21 to allow researchers to get to their equipment. The B2CC was dewatered, and the BCC transceiver disabled, between March 21 at 13:35 and March 24 at 9:04. The B2CC was dewatered at the end of the fish passage season on September 1.
2007 3/1/2007 1:30 PM 8/31/2007 1:00 PM The Corner Collector channel watered up on March 1, 2007. The channel was dewatered for the year on August 31.
2006 4/13/2006 8:00 AM 11/21/2006 9:00 AM New installation. First year. Opened for the season at 0815 on 13 April. The channel was shut down for the season around 16:00 PDT on 8/31/06. However, PIT tags were somehow detected through noon on September 1. The bypass channel was unexpectedly re-watered at 10:45AM on November 15, to pass trash and debris in the BON-PH2 forebay. The PIT tag system was re-activated at 11:30am on Nov. 16. The bypass was dewatered at ~8:30am on Nov. 21. The PIT tag detector was active during this interval, but no tags were detected. The B2CC was watered up between 12/21-26/06 to pass debris during ladder dewatering; the PIT tag detector was not activated during this interval.

System was checked for tuning and noise. A manual walk in of ARRT detected the tag at +31". No issues were discovered during this check.

3/27/2024 12:00:00 PM GMC

Ran manual ARRT test. Tag on at 34.11" system is working well.

1/30/2024 10:00:00 AM General

Replaced the flow switch for D2.

"Interlock" alarms had stopped this dehumidifier from operating for the past couple weeks. The system didn't get the confirmation of air flow because the sensor wasn't working properly. We tried to adjust the airflow sensor's sensitivity with no luck. We ended up replacing it with a new unit in the locker.

 

12/15/2023 8:57:00 AM General

All transceiver buffers were cleared the week of 12/11/2023.

11/13/2023 8:12:00 AM General

The annual Windows 10 LTSC updates were completed last Tuesday, Nov. 7 along with the upgrade of M5 to 2.1.8 . All site DCP's , SByC and non , now run the same version of M5. No outstanding issues to report.

9/21/2023 10:00:00 AM General

The clearance for the AC power to the building was lifted and power was restored at 09:47 today. This was confirmed by COE personnel.

9/12/2023 3:41:37 PM TASS Disabled
9/12/2023 7:17:23 AM ErrorsCleared The channel has been closed and the antenna building was locked out as the COE is performing maintenance in the channel. It will remain out of service until the end of next week according to site personnel.
9/11/2023 11:00:00 AM General

After speaking with site personnel the channel closed and the power to the antenna building was locked out for maintenance that is being performed in the channel. It will be locked out until the end of next week.

Checked noise levels and ARRT read range. Within normal parameters. No issues to report.

6/8/2023 11:30:00 AM GMC

Checked ARRT read range. It is averaging around 31". Detection seems OK. No tuning needed. Replaced filters on dehu and checked operation. No problems found.

5/31/2023 6:58:22 AM ErrorsCleared Short noise event.

ARRT was in a weird state where the PLC logic thought the ARRT test was in progress but in reality, the PLC never commanded the motion of the linear actuator through the logic. This was created by a PSMFC employee running manual test on site during a GMC. The PLC went into manual mode exactly when the PLC was automatically running an ARRT test. To fix the issue, I had to manually go into the PLC logic and remove the latch on the "Test in Progress" bit. This latch usually holds the logic on during a ARRT test but since the logic never made it's way through the code due to the manual mode being activate, the PLC was stuck in a inactive state. The system alerted us to the issue and everything is running now. 

5/25/2023 11:21:00 AM GMC

A site GMC was performed today. Transceiver was checked for tuning and noise. ARRT tag was walked into the field and was detected at +31". No problems were discovered during this check.

4/27/2023 9:39:00 AM GMC

Transceiver has normal noise levels and good ARRT read range. No issues to report.

3/26/2023 7:31:00 AM SiteUp

According to the water level sensor the site was deemed to be up for the season.

11/2/2022 1:00:00 PM General

Dehumidification system was experiencing flow alarms from D1. Nothing was wrong with the unit when inspected so I adjusted the sensitivity of the flow sensor. 

11/2/2022 1:00:00 PM General

Upgraded platform from M4 to M5.

11/2/2022 1:00:00 PM General

Updated the SLC and the CompactLogix PLCs to send the Float bit of the sensor readings from the SLC to the CompactLogix so the data could be inputted to M5. The standard M5 is not prepared to take this information so a meeting will take place to see what the best path forward will be for this data.

11/1/2022 9:25:00 AM General

All data collection PC's have been updated with the latest service packs for Windows10 LTSC.  M5 software was upgraded to 2.0.2.0 

10/6/2022 6:00:00 AM General

The CoE has removed power to BCC for an inspection. The estimated RTS is 10-10-2022.
