Description
As part of an ongoing research project, Cefas is collaborating with Defra and industry partners to carry out dredge fishing surveys with the aim of determining harvestable biomass of king scallop in the main fishing grounds around England. This tender seeks to secure a suitable vessel and all management, crew, victuals, fuel, and other services necessary to carry out the requirements.
The main objectives of the survey will be to:
- carry out tows at predetermined survey locations using standard commercial and modified scallop dredges; - count and measure all king scallops in designated survey dredges and collect samples for further analysis in the laboratory; - identify and count bycatch species.
Cefas will provide two scientists to oversee the survey operations, working with the vessel crew to deliver the objectives of the survey.
The Skipper will be required to discuss and agree with the scientists a Detailed Operational Plan (DOP) before commencement of the survey, including the overall objectives and tow locations. This may be done via telephone, video call or onsite visit to the selected tenderer (whatever is more practical with the time permitted).
Please note that the initial contract period is for one year, and 3 x 12 month extensions may be awarded subject to receiving further funding however, these extensions are not guaranteed.
