From construction to operation, hydropower plants impact fish in a variety of ways. Fish near tailrace are at risk of death since several operational procedures of hydropower plants can affect them. During generator units dewaterings, fish can be trapped in the draft tube and suffer stress, hypoxia and physical injuries. The larger the amount of fish trapped, the more complex is the recovery and the greater is the risk of death. Such fish deaths may hurt the company’s image and lead to fines and stoppage of power generation. In the Amador Aguiar II Dam (Araguari River, Minas Gerais state), mandi (Pimelodus maculatus) represents 90% or more of the number of fish recovered in generator units dewaterings. The present work was conducted in the ...
