6 | It is assumed that the water being drawn into the facility is going through a sand filter before being kept in the storage tank. The cost does not include the plumbing needed to bring the water to the tanks. | The prices do not take into account taxes or shippment costs and are subject to vary amoung suppliers and areas. | |||||||||

9 | Temperature Control | Hatchery Size | |||||||||
10 | This budget is set with the water in the tanks needing to be plumbed to a chiller. If there is a temperature controlled room that can be used, then the pump, chiller and tubing can be removed from the budget. There are only 5 chillers for 8 tanks, which will allow 4 tanks to operate with spools and one tank to be rotated for water changes. | These calculations are made for a hatchery that has 8 tanks, with a maximum of 4 being operated at a time. A total of 48- 2" spools (9,600' of seed string) can be produced at a time. | |||||||||

13 | Discharging | Start-Up Stage | |||||||||
14 | The treated water cannot be used repeatedly in the tanks, so it must be discarded. The budget does not include any extra costs for a discharge line/ filtration to the water output, or a sewage line. | Does not include hardware for assembling platforms, securing materials, etc. | |||||||||
