1 image/jpeg Project_DHV_small.jpg 21312 A few elements of the projects are dealt with further below:<br /> Boundary conditions, design criteria and requirements:<br /> Per location the starting points of the natural boundary conditions, existing situation, the boats and expected growth, design criteria and client requirements were laid down.<br /> <em><br /> Site visits location interactions:</em><br /> For the various sites interactions were held with the ministries, local government, local chiefs, chief fisherman etc.<br /> <em><br /> Sittings and master plans of required new facilities:</em><br /> For all the locations the need and the size of the required new facilities was evaluated. After this step per location the options for the siting was evaluated and for the best locations master plans were made.<br /> <em><br /> Surveys and investigations</em><br /> A detailed bathymetric and topographic survey of the various sites was made. The project also involved investigations of the available materials, the costs etc.<br /> <br /> <em>Design and detailed design:</em><br /> For the various sites all the elements concerned are designed. This involves where required the dredging, reclamation, breakwaters, the quays, the slope protections, the roads, drainage, the buildings etc.<br /> The breakwaters, slope protections and protected quay areas are designed using our high end computer models. The inputs for the models were the deep water wave boundaries and the detailed bathymetry using the results of the surveys of the areas.<br /> For the bigger sites the buildings involved are buildings for: mending nets, gutting of fish, fish market, day care for kids, administration building, ice making plant, engine maintenance and repair, fuel depot etc. All the designs are inclusive all civil, mechanical, electrical, lighting, architectural and landscape issues.<br /> <br /> <em>Environmental Impact Assessment:</em><br /> For the various sites all issues regarding environmental impact assessment with the scoping reports are dealt with. This also involves resettlement issues where applicable and all required interactions.<br /> Ministry of Fisheries Ghana Africa Phase 1: € 500,000 Ghana 2008-08-19T12:37:28+02:00 The fishing industry is an important economic factor in Ghana. The goal of the project is to have a better distribution of fishing ports infrastructure over the country. This will enable more people to make a good living in the fishing business. The project comprises the development of 12 new fishing ports including all required new facilities to develop the fishing industry and such that they all meet EU standards which will facilitate the export further. The ports will be mainly located along the coastline and two will be located in the Volta lake region. The new locations and designs need to be suitable for use by the current and the future types of fishing ships. 4 4 Site investigation, surveys, sitting, master plans, design, environmental impact assessments 5.7908968128719565 Along the coast and in the Volta lake region -1.40625 4 The goal of the project is to have a better distribution of fishing ports infrastructure over the country.
