Gunderboom^® MLES^™ Marine Life Exclusion System (continued) How the MLES™ works.


	Comprised of a pocket formed by two layers of treated fabric, the patented, full-water-depth MLES™ curtain is either suspended by flotation billets and anchored in place, or integrated into existing shoreline intake structures. Sealed against the sea floor and shoreline structures, the MLES™ completely surrounds the intake structure, preventing targeted planktonic and neustonic organisms from entering the system.

Since the surface area of the MLES™ is large compared to an intake screen, water velocity through the Gunderboom curtain is up to 98 percent less than the velocity near the intake structure. Low water velocity enables even small fish larvae to drift away from the boom.
