Screens close to the intake would probably restrict flow too much, so you need a containment area for “de-minnowed” water.

So something like two step screening? Question, even if the screens filtered just 30% of the smelt out wouldn't’t that keep them from being extinct?

Screens will keep 100% out.

I’d refer you to the post above yours (#226). Of course what you say is correct, but this never really was about the minnow, they just use it as leverage to get where they wanted to...
