The most common are monogeneans and certain groups of parasitic copepods, which can be extremely numerous.

[3] In addition, a run-of-river hydroelectric facility is located at the dam, which provides power generation whenever the flow over the spillway exceeds 150 cfs, or 1 1 ⁄ 4 -inch flow depth.

The concentration of oxygen in water is lower than air and it diffuses more slowly. In a litre of freshwater the oxygen content is 8 cm 3 per litre compared to 210 in the same volume of air. [7] Water is 777 times more dense than air and is 100 times more viscous. [7] Oxygen has a diffusion rate in air 10,000 times greater than in water. [7]
