This project was one of Reclamation's earliest. 'The <br />Highline canal was constructed in the late 1910's and early 1920's, and, in many respect, has <br />changed little since construction. The canal company would like to modernize, but i:s <br />struggling. A real-time canal monitoring and control project would seem to be the answer. <br /> <br />This irrigation season, DO, PRO, and the canal company have been evaluating a pneumatic <br />gate as a possible replacement for stoplog structures (See Photograph Nos. 8 and 9). A <br />bladder, which is filled by a DC air compressor, moves the gate up and down to maintain a <br />constant elevation behind the structure. The pneumatic technology, when integrated into a <br />rea1~time control system, seems to have great potential. <br /> <br />14 <br />
