The Harkortsee begins in the underwater of the Stiftsmühle dam. The weir has four openings closed with rollers and is located under the Ruhr bridge of the B 226 in the Wetter urban area. The power station and lock are about 800 m further downstream and are fed by a discharge ditch (upper ditch). In the area of the power plant, a near-natural fish pass was put into operation in 2004, which enables the fish to climb from the Ruhr into the Harkortsee.
