Both the sleeve valve and butterfly valve were operated electronically and the discharge reading
recorded once it stabilized. Again for every trial, the fish were slowly pressurized over a 1 -2 hr
period after insertion. For the 10 trials performed at the 6855 ft reservoir elevation, the sleeve
valve position averaged 10.02 percent open and the discharge averaged 23.4 cfs (table 10).
