NFT - North Fork Teanaway River
Status: Active - Operations UnspecifiedGeneral Operational Period: Year Round
Start Date: 1/13/2012 1:30 PM
This site is a permanent instream PIT tag detection system located at rkm 0.3 on the North Fork Teanaway River. The site consists of six 25', 3" HPDE antennas that span the wetted width of the river during most flow conditions. Antennas are anchored to the substrate using MR4 earth anchors and NRS straps. Each antenna is connected to an IS1001 antenna control node inside of a submersible enclosure. The ACNs are daisy chained together with CANbus cable which is connected to an IS1001 master controller located ~150' away on the right bank. Four solar panels are positioned in a open field to provide power to the site. Site was not operated between November 2015, when it was severely damaged, and May 2023, when it was reinstalled approximately 200 meters upstream of the original location.

Configuration
Configuration metadata includes details about the equipment used at the site to detect and record PIT tags. A new configuration sequence record is created when equipment is added or removed from the site and the period of time it was active. A configuration sequence without an End Date is currently active.

Event Log Summary
| Event Date | Event Type | Comments |
|---|---|---|
| 11/17/2015 7:00:00 PM | General | At around 7:00 PM, antennas 3-6 at NFT started to become disconnected or damaged due to excessive flows. Antennas 1 and 2 continued to run until 11-30 at 07:49 when the site was shut down. |
| 2/3/2015 12:45:00 PM | General | The MUX was turned back on at 12:45 today. All antennas appear to be functioning properly. |
| 12/9/2014 9:45:00 AM | General | At this time, NFT will be shut off for the winter months. The site will be turned back on in February before migrating fish are expected to move. |
| 1/29/2014 11:23:17 AM | General | Antenna 6 was fixed at 14:45 on 1/28. A shed pit tag (3D9.1C2DEED18B) was wedged against the antenna coil creating higher than average noise. The array was powered down between 14:00 and 15:00 to allow us to locate the tag with a portable reader. |
| 1/22/2014 7:56:56 AM | General | On 12-15-13 after 22:00, antenna 6 began to have increased noise levels. Presently, we are waiting for replacement antennas. |
