This paper describes a method currently being used to dewater a spillway bay in order to replace four original crest gates. The specific topics addressed are the testing program and method of installation utilized to set approximately eight hundred, 32 mm (1.25 inches) diameter, adhesive anchors underwater. These anchors were 40 and 48 cm (16 and 19 inches) in length and were placed in horizontal holes drilled in concrete abutments, in approximately 3 to 5 meters (10 to 18 feet) of water.
