DWR may possibly be using a large crane to remove the large logs & wood debris that has collected at the Spillway Inlet. This info from sources, but I have no images to reference. Perhaps DWR would post an image in their Gallery?

Removal of these large logs and wood debris would be wise. It would prevent this debris from causing possible issues with the Radial Gates (skin plate, seams, shock impact to Trunnion & Radial Gate, ...)
