If we use the origanal spilway aprox 4ft wide 3ft dp and 25% flow, This will have very little impact on the wildlife due to the fact the flow make a 180 deg bend over 400ft with low turbance. The head of 10 - 12 feet is well in reach with out reconstruction the dam. If we did replace the dam that was built in 1910, then total head is well over 25 feet, and have a major impact on the wildlife, Ps the beaver that live there would be pissed off as well. I hope this provides a little more info.
