OBERMEYER HYDRO, Inc. Ideas that Hold Water

OBERMEYER Spillway Gates allow increased water storage capacity at new or existing reservoirs with little or no decrease in spillway capacity. This avoids the usual compromise between adequate spillway capacity to accommodate floods, and desired water storage capacity. Adding capacity to existing reservoirs by installing OBERMEYER Spillway Gates eliminates the political and financial hurdles which the construction of new reservoirs entails. This approach allows cost effective increases in useful storage capacity on a short timetable.
