The 'fish passes' I am familiar with are all man made, they provide fish
a way around weirs, dams and locks.
They certainly are not intended for human transportation and should not
provide a lot of water flow.
They are different from spillways, canals and other man made waterways,
they are not a sub class to them.
If they are not to be considered part of the waterway key then possibly
they can be added to the key man_made.
