Descripción
The present report comprises Phase 1 of the design development of the Brackishwater Aquaculture Research Station (BARS) of FRI. The report describes in short the status and potential of brackishwater aquaculture in Bangladesh and the role research can play in its further development. Operational objectives for BARS are identified, with their relative priorities. Site and design criteria are listed, based on: infrastructural needs of the research programmes envisaged; physical and chemical requirements for construction and water management; expected staff requirements. General characteristics of the Khulna/Satkhira area are described and projected on the site criteria mentioned above. The preliminary selected site at Tengramari is analyzed for its suitability for BARS. Although there are shortcomings with respect to general land level and freshwater supply, the site can in principle be considered suitable. A preliminary lay-out of facilities is presented and design recomme ndations are provided. A list is drawn up of general and specific actions that have to be undertaken before Phase 2 of the design development can proceed. In Phase 2 the design work will be finalized, needed specifications will be prepared, and bills of quantities and tender documents will be drafted.
