Aquatic Guidance Lighting<br />

Cost-Effective Compliance for the Protection <strong>of</strong> Fish<br />

Flash Technology has spent a decade developing, testing, and refining a<br />

bioengineering technology that is far less expensive than physical barrier<br />

options. Because <strong>of</strong> their strong aversion to strobe lighting, the movement <strong>of</strong><br />

many species <strong>of</strong> fish can be directed away from water intake systems without<br />

acclimating to the light, even after long-term exposure.<br />

How Does It Work?<br />

The Aquatic Guidance Lighting system uses powerful, rapidly-pulsing<br />

underwater strobe lighting to create a “wall <strong>of</strong> light” in front <strong>of</strong> water intakes to<br />

prevent impingement and entrainment <strong>of</strong> fish. Successful field testing has been<br />

conducted by third party scientists. Technical papers by species are available<br />

upon request.<br />

Since every site is unique, we will be glad to discuss your potential application.<br />
