EXPLANATORY NOTES
Geographical positions refer directly to the graduations of the largest scale Canadian Hydrographic chart unless otherwise indicated.
Bearings refer to the true compass and are measured clockwise from 000° (North) clockwise to 359°; those relating to lights are from seaward.
Visibility of lights is that in clear weather.
Depths - The units used for soundings (metres, fathoms or feet) are stated in the title of each chart.
Elevations are normally given above Higher High Water, Large Tide unless otherwise indicated.
Distances may be calculated as follows:
1 nautical mile = 1,852 metres (6,076.1 feet)
1 statute mile = 1,609.3 metres (5,280 feet)
1 metre = 3.28 feet
Temporary & Preliminary Notices are indicated by a (T) or a (P) in Section 1, respectively. Please note that Nautical charts are not amended by the Canadian Hydrographic Service for Temporary (T) and Preliminary (P) Notices. It is recommended that mariners chart these corrections in pencil. The list of charts affected by Temporary and Preliminary Notices are revised and promulgated quarterly in Section 1 of the Monthly Edition.
Please note that, in addition to the temporary and preliminary changes normally advertised as (T) and (P) Notices, there are a few permanent changes to aids to navigation that have been advertised as Preliminary Notices to Mariners while charts are being updated for new editions.
Marine Information Report & Suggestion Sheet
Mariners are requested to notify the responsible authorities when new or suspected dangers to navigation are discovered, changes observed in aids to navigation or corrections to publications are seen
to be necessary. Such communications can be made using the Marine Information Report & Suggestion Sheet inserted on the last
page of each monthly edition of Notices to Mariners.
Canadian Hydrographic Service - Information Published in Section 2 of Notices to Mariners
Mariners are advised that only the most critical changes that directly affect safety to navigation are issued in Section 2 – Chart Corrections. This limitation
is required to ensure that charts remain as clear and easy to read as possible. As a result, mariners may see minor discrepancies of a
non-critical nature between information in official publications. For example, a small change in the nominal range or focal height of a light
may not result in the production of a chart correction in Notices to Mariners, but may result in a correction in the List of Lights, Buoys and
Fog Signals publication.
In case of discrepancy between information provided on CHS charts relating to aids to navigation, and the List of Lights, Buoys and Fog Signals publication, the latter shall be deemed as containing the most up-to-date information.
Canadian Nautical Charts & Publications
A source list of Canadian nautical charts and publications is published in Notice No. 14 of the Notices to Mariners Annual Edition 2020. The source supply and the prices
effective at the time of printing are listed. For current chart edition dates, please refer to the following website:
www.chs-shc.gc.ca/charts-cartes/paper-papier/index-eng.asp
CHART CORRECTIONS - SECTION 2
Corrections to nautical charts will be listed in numerical order by chart number. Each chart correction listed applies only to that particular chart. Related charts, if any, will have their own specific correction listed separately.
Users should also refer to CHS Chart 1: Symbols, Abbreviations and Terms for additional information pertaining to the correction of charts.
The illustration below describes the elements that will comprise a typical Section 2 chart correction:
The last correction number is identified with the LNM/D or Last Notice to Mariners Number / Date.
NOTICES TO MARINERS WEBSITE – MONTHLY EDITIONS, CHART CORRECTIONS, AND CHART PATCHES
The Notices to Mariners website allows users to access the monthly publications,
chart corrections, and chart patches.
Users can subscribe for free to the email notification service
to receive notifications when charts of interest are updated, including their patches, as well as when a new monthly edition becomes available online.
In addition, the monthly publication and related files to download, such as chart patches and Sailing Directions diagrams, can be obtained all together through the download of a single ZIP file.
ADVISORY NAVIGATIONAL WARNINGS / NOTICES TO SHIPPING
The Canadian Coast Guard is implementing a number of changes to the aids to navigation system in Canada.
These changes are advertised as Navigational Warnings, formerly called Notices to ShippingFootnote 1, that are broadcast by the Canadian Coast Guard, and are then followed up with Notices to Mariners, then charts are updated by hand correction, reprints or new editions.
Mariners are advised that all relevant Navigational Warnings (NAVWARNs) should be kept until superseded by Notices to Mariners or through revised charts issued by the Canadian Hydrographic Service (CHS).
Navigational Warnings are accessible on the applicable regional page on the Canadian Coast Guard e-Navigation Maritime Information Portal at http://www.marinfo.gc.ca/e-nav.
The Canadian Hydrographic Service is reviewing the impact of these changes with the Canadian Coast Guard and together are preparing an action plan on the issuing of chart revisions.
For further information, contact your regional Navigational Warning (NAVWARN) Issuing Desk.
