The main challenge for modernising and improving operation of Hoover Dam was to overhaul and upgrade a series of 50-ft-tall pressure-relief valves (PRVs) on turbines in the dam’s powerhouse and to convert them to a hydraulic control system. The project was awarded to Precision Machine & Supply Inc., which had conducted work on the Hoover Dam since the 1990s.
