About this file
This document contains detailed specifications for a Trailer Mounted Fish Transport System for Gavins Point National Fish Hatchery, contract number 140FS226Q0160.
The fish distribution tank specifications require an aluminum construction measuring 77 inches long by 71 inches wide by 33 inches high, with inner walls at least 0.160 inches thick and outer shell at 0.125 inches thick. The complete system (trailer, tank, water, and fish) must be rated at 14,000 lbs GVWR to accommodate a 12,000 GVWR truck while remaining under CDL requirements. The tank must feature double-walled construction with minimum 2 inches of foam insulation throughout, including a 3-inch insulated bottom and 2-inch insulated lids. The design consists of two equally-sized side-by-side separate compartments with front and rear-opening lids, each with independent discharge capability—one rear discharge and one driver's side discharge with 8-inch male cam lock fittings and watertight slide gates. Each compartment requires two 12-inch by 2-inch O2 bubble diffusers with separate flow meters, two ¾-inch diameter access holes for oxygen supply lines, and one Fresh Flo 12-volt aerator with water-resistant twist lock plugs. Additional requirements include 1-inch screened overflow drains per compartment, two ram vents per tank with 1/8-inch screened openings, lift points on all four corners, a knife gate upstream of the camlock fitting with maximum 1/8-inch gap tolerances, heavy-duty piano hinges with Destaco 225 USS hold downs and gas assist pistons, and four or more mounting brackets to secure the tank to the trailer. Shop drawings must be submitted for approval before fabrication, with final fabrication pictures required prior to shipping.
The trailer specifications require a 17-foot aluminum gooseneck skid loader trailer with approximately 20-inch deck height, 72 inches between fenders, 2-inch aluminum extruded flooring, ½-inch thick bed rail, fixed walk-on fenders, ICC and DOT approved lighting, 8,000-pound double axle with electric brakes and oil bath, drop springs, 5/215-75R 17.5-inch 16-ply tires, modular steel wheels with aluminum center caps, and a spare tire carrier. The gooseneck height must provide 74 inches clearance from ground to the underside of the main gooseneck frame.
