INTRODUCTION

Background of the Study

Overfishing is being showed when we harvested too many fish. Overfishing

is a problem largely because many likes seafood. Eating seafood is not a bad

thing, of course, but we cannot constantly harvest species exhaustively in a part

and expect them to continue to live and survive. Over seventy-five percent of the

world’s fish species are either fully exploited or depleted based on the estimate of

FAO (Kennedy, 2016).

A planned oceanarium (Cebu Ocean Park) is projected as an educational

tool aside from promoting marine conservation. Manila Ocean Park will be bringing

in many of its educational and CSR-related programs to park, such as the “I Love

My Ocean Planet” campaign, which is intended to protect our marine species. “We

believe that by showing people how beautiful our marine environment is, we hope

that through that campaign we can raise awareness for the love for the

environment— same thing as what we have done in Manila,” said by the Manila

Ocean Park vice president for sales (Lucero, 2015).

Over five hectares in the coastal in Panabo City, Davao Del Norte was

established to rehabilitate the marine life and ensure the province’s sustainable

economic growth and the project called The Davao Del Norte Coastal Biodiversity

Protection and Conservation Program. Through Ugmad Komunidad the program

was undertaken, the Environment and Wildlife Protection and Development


division of the PENRO-LGU and the Provincial Agriculturist Office (Regalado,

2014).

The Marine Sanctuary Park will be the start for the region’s awareness

about the marine life conservation. This is the place where humankind meets the

marine species and to educate everyone the importance of their existence. The

project is also for the fishing business of the island and as well as the tourism of

the country.

Client

Merlin Entertainments Group Inc. will finance the proposed project

with the collaboration of the Marine Conservation Philippines a group that care

about conserving and preserving the marine life.

Organizational History. Merlin Entertainments is the largest European

entertainments company operating in Europe. Merlin runs 114 attractions in 23

countries across four continents. The Merlin Entertainments also owned the

Sydney Aquarium, Sydney Wildlife World, Oceanworld Manly, Underwater World,

Melbourne Aquarium, Busan Aquarium, Siam Ocean World and other resorts and

businesses around the world.

Marine Conservation Philippines is a non-profit organization based in the

Visayas region of the Philippines. Through marine research, campaigning, local

outreach and conservation efforts the organization has joined the fight to try and

change the current situation before it is too late. We dream of a future and of a sea

where our kids and their kids can still marvel at grazing sea-turtles and sharks and

where coastal communities enjoy adequate fish-stocks for the next generations.
Client’s Vision. The vision of Merlin Entertainments is to take world

leadership in terms of the location-based and even entertainments, as what they

have started in the rest of the world. Aquatic attractions is one of their

achievements in the land of Australia, they have a lot of aquariums not just in

Sydney but even in other countries.

Client’s Mission. The Merlin Entertainments is to give every family a smile

in their faces and memorable experiences. Through the creativity and relentless

drive for excellence the Merlin Entertainments immerse the visitor of their products,

constantly delighting them and enriching their understanding through fun learning.

The company aims to deliver rewarding experiences to the millions of visitors

across the growing estate. The collaboration of the Marine Conservation

Philippines also wants to preserve and conserve the marine life and they want us

to be aware what is happening in the life of our marine species. Their mission is to

spread knowledge, implement solutions, and help try to change the current

situation before it is too late. “We dream of a future and of a sea where our kids

and their kids can still see and marvel at grazing sea-turtles and dugongs, see

splendidly rich coral reefs, whales and sharks and seahorses and everything in

between. We dream of fishing being conducted in an ecologically sound way,

ensuring both the livelihood of local communities and ensuring adequate fish-

stocks for the next generations. We dream of clean, pollution free beaches and

mangroves”.

The Architectural Project

The project will be the center of awareness for Davao Region and

the research center of the Island Garden City of Samal for the marine life and will
be open to study the issues regarding the marine biodiversity of the Philippines, it

will have a research building to study every specie, how to make them grow and

nourish for the fishing business by not affecting them, the temperature of their

habitat and even alien marine species. The main building is the oceanarium that

will serve as the habitat for the marine species and it will be open for the visitors

of the resort to see all the marine species that we have but of course by following

the regulations of the government for the marine wildlife protection. This will be the

first Oceanarium of Merlin Entertainments without Aqua-Theatre for Dolphin’s

show. The expected visitors are not just from the Philippines but the whole world,

it will showcase the various types of marine wildlife of the Philippines and how we

treat our land and the beauty of the Island Garden City of Samal. The culture and

architecture will take in every design of the resort.


Chapter 2

GOALS

This chapter involves the Goals function, forms, economy, and time.

Function

Hierarchy of Values. The proposed IGACOS Marine Sanctuary Park and

Resort would showcase the marine life and its importance. The proposed project

could be the first Marine Sanctuary Park and Research Center of the marine

ecology of the Mindanao and study every marine species in the country and marine

issues. This could not just an attraction but to give awareness to everyone.

Prime Activities. The proposed project is the place where we can deal

with the marine life. The conservation of marine life is the focus of this study. The

visitors can meet the different kinds of marine species in the oceanarium. Visitors

could able to touch some of the marine species. Tourist will come from the different

sides of the world, they could able to learn of some issues in underwater and have

fun meeting the marine wildlife.

In the research building, whenever there is an issue regarding to marine

wildlife, the proposed project could handle the problem, study and how to solve the

issue that both human and marine wildlife will not be affected or how to control the

severe problem of the environment.

Efficiency. The first step to reach the resort is the Davao International

Airport if you are outside Mindanao. The resort will provide a port located in Sta.
Ana, Davao City and that could be the mean directly to the resort or ride a Ferry

Boat in Sasa Wharf.

Form

Projected Image. Island Garden City of Samal is part of Davao del Norte

but all the ports which is the means to reach the island is in Davao City. The

proposed IGACOS Marine Sanctuary Park and Resort will be located in San Isidro,

Kaputian District.

Clients Expectations. The tourist will experience a great fun learning as

one of the goals of Merlin Entertainments. There will be no dolphin shows in the

resort but will have a sanctuary for dolphins where we can see the real life of

dolphins in the waves and a relaxation with the beauty of the Island Garden City

of Samal.

Community Relations. The proposed project will be open for the native of

Island Garden City of Samal, from the construction of the project, maintenance,

the benefits of some businesses inclined with project, to the crew and management

of the resort such as in research center, hotel and restaurant and other facilities of

the resort. The project could boost the fishing business of the municipality, tourist

will come and that could be an opportunity to open other businesses to be offered.

As the project rises the job opportunity of the municipality will also increase and

tourism and economy of the country will also benefit to the project.

Efficient Land Use. The location of the proposed project is the San Isidro

in Island Garden City of Samal which is a agri=tourism site and it is suitable for the

project.
Economy

Cost Effectiveness. The SEA LIFE Sydney Aquarium owned by the Merlin

Entertainments is one of the largest aquarium in the world holding 700 species

comprising more than 1,300 underwater creatures. During its first year in the year

1988, 55% of its visitors coming from overseas.

The amount of tourism infrastructure throughout the U.S. is continuing to

grow as developers are establishing different and exciting attractions to the benefit

of their state and local communities. Broad-based development incentives are

common room for many state economic development departments. There are also

many specific economic progress incentives that target the tourism industry

through tourism specific legislation. Economic incentives are vehicles utilized by

states to inspire growth and development within their borders. More and more

states recognize the fiscal and economic benefits that result when promoting

development in tourism infrastructure (Hansen, 2012).

The Island Garden City of Samal has a great number of visitors each year

because of the white-sand beaches and fun activities. The proposed project which

will be financed by the Merlin Entertainments and in fact will spend a lot of money

for the production, as the resort gain its name in the world like the other properties

of Merlin Entertainments will be expected to boost the tourism of the municipality.

Sustainability. New offerings, the economy, tourism, weather, media

coverage, management are some of the factors that will affect the performance of

museums and parks (Rubin, 2014).


The management and maintenance depends on the number of visitors.

There will be an enhancement of the facilities and services every year to be offered

to the clients for the level of the proposed project to maintain or to make it higher.

Time

Historic Preservation. Samal Island Mariculture Park a 224 hectare

industrial park on sea. Aimed at endorsing mariculture as a major source of income

for the coastal fisher folks, developing great scale privately operated cage culture

plan, this industrial park is located in Sitio Leydao, Kaputian District; and the

Aundanao Fish Sanctuary is located on the eastern coast of Samal Island and like

most coastal areas the fish and marine resources were exploited in more ways

than one. The coastal waters of Aundanao as a fish sanctuary and later on became

a tourist destination before the whole marine life is wiped out (ISLANDS OF THE

PHILIPPINES, 2012)

Occupancy Date. The first people in Island Garden City of Samal are the

Mansakas, Mandayas and Muslim or so called Sama tribe. The island was ruled

by the Datus but in the 18th century when the Christianization came in the

governance shifted. At the year 1948, the municipalities had been created at the

end of 1998 the new strategy of development had been made which is the creation

of an urban center in a rural environment.

Availability of Funds. The project will be financed by Merlin

Entertainments and all the experts in the resort especially in the Research Building

which will be needed a marine experts in all departments. The oceanarium will be

the source of financial for the resort will be maintain or upgrading of such facilities.
The finding of the project would be costly from the construction and

maintenance and including the application of green designs. The marine species

to be transported to the resort will also be in the consideration but this type of

project is not the first business of Merlin Entertainments, they also have an

aquariums in Singapore.
Chapter 3

FACTS

In this chapter involves all data to be used in designing the site and facilities.

Function

Statistical Data. The sizes of the marine species are needed for the

transportation and their habitat. The IGACOS Marine Sanctuary Park and Resort

will showcase the different marine species around the world.

Presented in Table 1 the list of sharks with their average sizes and common

habitats for the record and consideration of the temperature when they are in the

artificial habitats or what we called aquariums. The Hammerhead Sharks, Blacktip

Sharks, Sand Tiger Sharks, Blue Sharks, Shortfin Mako, Tiger Sharks, and Great

White Sharks are the deadliest, and most aggressive sharks, and these are the

types of sharks are afraid to be put in the aquariums because of their

aggressiveness, and might attack other fish in the aquariums.

Presented in Table 2 the list of rays with their average sizes. The largest

ray is measured 5 meters in length. The Smooth Stingrays and Manta Rays are

the poisonous type of rays, and the Spotted Eagle Rays are the most beautiful,

and this will be feature in the Oceanarium.


Presented in Table 3 the list of Dolphin species. There are also dolphins

spotted in the island of Samal. Bottlenose Dolphins are the type of dolphins in the

captivity in the Ocean Park, and other parks in Asia also showcases Bottlenose.

The Dolphin Sanctuary in the project will hold the retired dolphins in the captivity

of dolphins in the Philippines and the neighbourhood country because captivity has

no educational value and will just harm their lives. The resort will not get another

dolphins to be put in the captivity but to get the dolphins to be in their real habitat.

Presented in Table 4 the list of whale species around the world. The blue

whale is the largest among of the list with the average size of 26 meters and it can

adapt in any type of habitat. Same with the dolphins, the whales are should not be

put in the captivity, the purpose of the project is to treat them.

Presented n Table 5 the list of marine turtles and most of the list of the

turtles are tropical species. The Loggerhead, Green Sea, and the Kemp’s Ridley

Turtles are the endangered species of turtle, these species will be the focus of

Turtle Research Department for conservation.

Presented in Table 6 the list of marine crustaceans. The list includes

bernacles, shrimps, lobsters, and crabs with their average sizes. All species in the

list in Marine Crustaceans can be possibly showcase in the Oceanarium for

awareness and for research purposes.

Users Characteristics. The project involves the different phenomena of

the Marine Biodiversity. The Marine Conservation Philippines is one of the groups

in the world who took awareness in the marine life, the group wants to preserve

every life in the sea and teach every how important they are.

Groups, scientists, businessmen, and even individuals are engage to the

proposed project. The experts in marine conservation will study the current issues,
the effect of the climate change to the marine life and how to preserve and

conserve the marine species, the experts would probably from the different parts

of the country, and even from other countries who are has also a mission in

preserving and conserving the marine life.

The proposed project will be hiring the Marine Biologists and Scientists, they

will study the interaction between the marine lives and the human daily lives or the

effects of using the natural resources. Marine Scientist will be the source of

information and the first in environmental protection.

Community Characteristics. According the City Planning and

Development Office of Island Garden City of Samal the population of the

municipality has 95, 874 as of 2010 from National Statistic Office (NSO). Numbers

of the residents of the municipality travel every day to Davao City for work, as the

proposal completed, also numbers of the residents of Samal will benefit to the

project especially job opportunity.

Traffic Analysis. The common way to reach the island is by boat or ferries.

Approximately 45 minutes travel from Sasa Wharf or Sta. Ana, Davao City where

ferries and boats are available. The Municipality is not crowded therefore the traffic

is not a problem.

Economy

Cost Parameters. Sydney Aquarium is one of the largest aquariums in the

world and Merlin Entertainments costs millions for the new SEA LIFE. Same with

the other projects of Merlin Entertainments the proposed IGACOS Marine

Sanctuary Park and Resort will hold a large number of marine species and giant

aquarium and even the cost for the construction.

Energy Source Costs. The Island of Samal is not part of Davao City so it

is not covered by the Davao Light. The source of energy is from the Davao Del

Norte Electric Cooperative, Inc. (DANECO).

Presented in Table 13 the Power Rates as of January 2016. Residential has

the highest rate with 8.6432.

Time

Significance. The idea of being “the center of the center” came out of a

study by Kent Carpenter and Victor Springer in 2005, where they noted that there

is a higher concentration of species per unit area in the Philippines than anywhere

else in this region. The Philippines is also the center of the center of marine shore

fish diversity in the world (The Manila Times, 2013).

Space Parameters. Every requirements and spaces of the proposed

project will follow the codes and standards.

CONCEPTS
Presented in this chapter the Concept’s function, form, economy and time.

Function

Conceptual Design. The IGACOS Marine Sanctuary Park and Resort will

have an aquariums which will hold a large number of marine species. The concept

of the resort will be “Sea Sponges”, the designs of the buildings will not literally

look like a sponge but the concept will reflect to the functions. The main attraction

that holds giant aquariums and tanks which is the Oceanarium, the building will

have a separated entrance and exit like the flow of water as the sea sponge starts

to pump the water. The circulation of water in the body of sponges work like

chimneys, sponges take in water at the bottom called the “Ostia” and discharge it

from their “Osculum” at the top. Like the flow of the Oceanarium, the Museum and

Commercial Building has also separated entrance and exit, these areas are the

introduction for the tourist, the point where excitement takes in. After the two areas,

the last and another important point for awareness for marine life is the Dolphin

Sanctuary, the resort will not hold a dolphin show or a facility like the aqua- theatre

for dolphin’s captivity. The tourist or guest will enjoy at the same time they will learn

about the marine life.

Sequential Flow. To achieve the good circulation in areas of the project

and the effectiveness of the designs and security of guests, the IGACOS Marine

Sanctuary Park and Resort will have a proper positioning and designing of all the

facilities. From the site of the project to the buildings of the project will have a
proper control of the visitors and to the employees, entrances and exits will be

suitably assigned for their safety.

The Site Development Diagram is presented in Figure 6, The IGACOS

Marine Sanctuary Park and Resort will have three entrances for the guests, two

entrances by land and one seaport. The entrances by land are accessible to the

Hotel and Ocenarium, and to Dormitory for the Marine Experts and students. The

seaport is beside the Hotel, so that guests can have their rooms and dine first

before exploring the resort, the resort will provide a shuttle. The center of the resort

is the Oceanarium and it is accessible to the Research building for the employees

and personnel only, and it will have a docking area for the delivery of the Marine

species. The ticketing area is in the Commercial Building, they will explore first the

Domical Museum which is in the center of commercial buildings.

Presented in Figure 7 the Oceanarium Diagram, the facility has wide lobby

where waiting area, and briefing for the guest as they explore the marine wildlife

takes place. The Oceanarium will have two aquariums, these are for Coral Reef

and Ocean Habitat Tank, and also have display tanks along the hallway. Before

entering the aquariums, the part in the aquariums will have fire exits and private

areas which is for authorized personnel only will be not exposed to the public for

the safety of the animals and the guests.

sun-shading devices and water harvesting system is an investment for the future

of the project for it will reduce the expenses.


Energy Conservation. The use of sun control and shading devices is an

important aspect of many energy-efficient building design strategies. In particular,

buildings that employ passive solar heating or day-lighting often depend on well-

designed sun control and shading devices (Prowler, 2014). The Hotel, and some

parts of the Research Center are the major facilities that will be using a day-lighting

and sun-shading devices.

The resort will also be using a water harvesting system, from the rooftops

of the facilities and also from the ground will have a system that will collect water.
