Written by: Peter Soeth

June issue of the Operation and Maintenance Bulletin.The Bureau of Reclamation has been publishing the Water Operations and Maintenance Bulletins since 1952 and they are still publishing today.

The summer 2017 issue featured canal operating training, tips for SCADA planning, the Technical Service Center's concrete testing, and a brochure that can be printed to promote canal safety.

The next issue, coming out in September, covers innovative solutions such as a deflector for intake pipelines, using rubber dams rather than earthen ones, using CLSM for voids, and approaches for underwater inspections and construction.

All of the issues are available on Reclamation's website at https://www.usbr.gov/assetmanagement/WaterBulletins/.
