Mirabel Fish Ladder

Forestville, California, USA

Xypex Admix C-500 was added to the concrete of the replacement fish ladder at the Mirabel Diversion site located on the Russian River in Sonoma County, California. The fish ladder allows migrating salmon to swim past the inflatable dam to lay their eggs further upstream. Xypex was chosen because of its ability to protect concrete from the intrusion of water under extreme hydrostatic pressure.
