The Dalles Dam is a hydroelectric dam spanning the Columbia River, two-miles (3 km) east
of the city The Dalles, Oregon (it joins Wasco
County, Oregon with Klickitat County, Washington).
The Dam has been the site of a recent
U.S. Corps of Engineers project to improve survival
rates of out-migrating young salmon that
pass over the Dam spillway. The Dalles Dam spillway is the primary downstream
passage route for migrating juvenile
salmon travelling down the Columbia River.Researchers found in previous
studies that theyoung salmon had low survival rates after passing
through the spillway. |

| General Contractor GUPC (Sacyr Vallehermoso/Impregilo/Jan de Nul/Constructora Urbana
J.V.) selected Maxon Agitors and Surgecretes for use in the expansion of the Panama Canal,
one of the largest civil project in recent history. GUPC will construct new lock chambers on
both the Atlantic and Pacific sides (which will add a third lane to the canal). The new locks will
accommodate the larger Post-Panamax containerships which are up to 2.5 times the size of
vessels that could previously navigate the Canal |

| Many of the world’s major civil projects have used Maxon equipment to transport and place structural concrete, roller compacted concrete (RCC) or mass-aggregate concrete. Since the construction of the Grand Coulee Dam in the 1930’s, truck mounted Maxon concrete transporters have been used for large pour concrete projects including dams, powerhouses, nuclear power plants, airports, foundation mats, and many other projects requiring mass concrete pours. The Maxon Agitor offers contractors the ability to agitate and transport any concrete mix and feed concrete pumps, buckets, and conveyors or directly to grade. |

| The Maxon SURGECRETE is available as a stationary or portable surge hopper designed to accept a full load of material including concrete, Roller Compacted Concrete,
rock, sand or dirt from any haul truck quickly and easily, and meter the material to charge belt conveyors, buckets, or concrete pumps with controlled accuracy. The Maxon
SURGECRETE allows trucks to quickly discharge their
load, and maintain metered continuous flow to maximize
your material delivery system. |
