Message: Inclined gates tend to have operational problems, may not be the best configuration for remote dams.
When rehabilitation was deemed necessary due to poor condition of the outlet conduit, the owner of this remote Montana dam decided to replace their existing inclined slide gate with an in-tower gate system. His experience with inclined gates was that they are challenging to operate and susceptible to clogging and damage. Not a good fit for a remote high elevation dam.
