    Steel beams are prepared for placement on the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Walla Walla District, McNary Lock and Dam’s tailrace crane, also referred to as “Crane 4,” during construction of the new crane which replaced a 70-year-old crane in 2023. The crane, along with the Intake Crane, or “Crane 5,” serve vital roles at the project not only strengthening the project infrastructure but also supporting the region by enhancing hydropower production, fish passage through more efficient deployment of the fish screens which redirect fish away from turbines, and protecting the lock and dam infrastructure itself through more efficient debris removal to ensure operations aren’t jeopardized.
