A view from upstream. The view is deceiving; the water on the left side of the AquaDam® is about 3'-4' deeper than the water on the right.
Take it easy and do not get in a hurry. The head pressure must be maintained or the AquaDam® will become buoyant and might float down steam.
Once the AquaDam® gets to the end of the work area, it is turned back into the shore and allowed to unroll until it abuts into the bank.
Fill is placed next to the AquaDam® on the upstream end of the work area to help hold it in place as filling continues.
