' <br /> <br />The design of this recovery facility provides for design and post Information for those <br />components and facilities which would be pan of a model faci(lty. This information could <br />then be used to assist in the final selection of the recov~ry facIlity components; selection <br />of the site, and would also be a starting point for the prellmi~ary design. <br /> <br />Estimated costs for capital construction were developed on !,he basis of feasibility level <br />design information for a comparable unit or system basis an~ are shown In Tables 6, 7,. <br />and 8. The tables are for production scenario 2 . 300.000 fish.itor each of the three water <br />supply types. The estimates are In 1992 dollars. The costs ar~ segregated into the three <br />major components of the recovery facility: the fish hatchery; t~e broodstock and refugla <br />holding ponds and th~ research facility. These cost estlmat~s do not lncludel\costs for- <br />land or Improvements. Including ~xistlng hatchery facilities. ; a.oft..U-~' ~ <br /> <br />Estimated operation and maintenance costs have been developed and are also presented <br />In Tables 6, 7 and 8. These costs represent all functions to be: performed on-site with tt:le <br />exception of the research program. Details on the extent of r~search programs, who will <br />conduct them, and. changing priorities over time prevent acpurate estimates of costs. <br />These estimates would remain relatively constant regardless Qf site selection. Operation <br />and maintenance costs for' the research building which are as~oclated with water quality, <br />pathology and other services connected with the propagation of fish are included. <br /> <br />Full time pf3rsonnel requirements for the facility hav~ been es~mated for each production <br />scenario. Personnel categories Include: facility manager, ~ssistant facility manager, <br />laboratory technician. fish culturlst, maintenance engineer, pla~t engineer and receptionist. <br />The estimated number of full time equivalent personnel are ~, 9, and 10 for production <br />scenarios 1 t 2 and 3 respectively. i <br /> <br />Tables 6, 7 and 8 r:;:;; the r~lative costs for the major components of the recovery X <br />facility and the total cost for each of the water supply types .or production scenario 2 - <br />300,000 fish. Table 9 presents the estimated total costs for t~e recovery facility for each <br />of the three production scenarios for each water supply type.
