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 2019. 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:

elements of section 2

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.

*505 CANADIAN COAST GUARD PUBLICATION – AMENDMENTS TO NOTICES TO MARINERS ANNUAL EDITION 2019 - SECTION A2, NOTICE 5A: GENERAL REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS FOR ALL OCEANS ACT MARINE PROTECTED AREAS

Page 13:

ADD THE FOLLOWING AT THE BEGINNING OF THE PAGE:

1.7The Banc-des-Américains Marine Protected Area

The Banc-des-Américains Marine Protected Area Regulations, under the Oceans Act, were published on March 6, 2019. The full text of the regulations designating this area can be found in the Canada Gazette, Part II, Vol. 153, No. 5, 439-481 (http://canadagazette.gc.ca).

These Regulations constitute the federal portion of the joint Banc-des-Américains Marine Protected Area project, created under the Canada-Quebec collaborative agreement for establishing a marine protected areas network in Quebec and the specific Agreement for this project, signed on March 4, 2019.

Coordinates

The Regulations establish two management zones within the MPA:

Zone 1 (core protection zone): This zone covers an area of 127 km2. It covers all of the rocky ridges associated with the American Bank, as well as their escarpments and the surrounding sea floor.

Zones 2a and 2b (adaptive management zone): These zones cover an area of 873 km2 and include almost 90% of the MPA. They include the deep plains on either side of the American Bank.

The Banc-des-Américains Marine Protected Area (1,000 km2) is bounded by rhumb lines connecting the following geographical coordinates (points 1 to 16) [North American Datum 1983 (NAD 83)]. Zone 1 is bounded by a series of rhumb lines drawn from point 1 to point 5, then to points 6 to 16 and then back to point 1. Zone 2a is bounded by a series of rhumb lines drawn from point 5 to point 2, then to point 3, then to point 11, then to point 10, then to point 9, then to point 8, then to point 7, then to point 6 and then back to point 5. Zone 2b is bounded by a series of rhumb lines drawn from point 16 to point 15, then to point 14, then to point 13, then to point 12, then to point 4 and then back to point 16.

The Banc-des-Américains Marine Protected Area is shown in the map below:

Regulatory Requirements for Vessels Operating in the Banc-des-Américains Marine Protected Area

See Section 5A – General Regulatory Requirements for all Oceans Act Marine Protected Areas.

Specific requirements for the Banc-des-Américains Marine Protected Area

oAll activities related to shipping and transportation continue to be allowed within the MPA. However, anchoring of vessels is not permitted in Zone 1. In addition, discharge of sewage and release of grey water (as defined in the Vessel Pollution and Dangerous Chemicals Regulations) from vessels with a gross tonnage of 400 tonnes or more, or certified to carry 15 or more passengers, are prohibited in the MPA.

Guidelines for Vessels Operating in the Area (Year Round)

It is recommended that the following guidelines be followed to safeguard the Marine Protected Area and its resources.

Marine Mammal Protection

1.Vessels must comply with all relevant provisions of the Marine Mammal Regulations under the Fisheries Act. Further details can be found in Section 5 – General Guidelines for Aquatic Species at Risk and Important Marine Mammal Areas.

2.Report all collisions with marine mammals or turtles, entanglements of marine mammals or turtles and animals in distress or those found dead by calling the toll-free number of the Réseau québécois d'urgences pour les mammifères marins (1-877-722-5346). Before releasing a whale carcass caught in fishing gear, it is important to contact the emergency service.

N.B. In this document, the term “Banc-des-Américains” is used to refer to the marine area that is designated as a Marine Protected Area, while the term “American Bank” is used to refer to the underwater bank (i.e. the physical structure) in the Gulf of St. Lawrence.

Important note

It is the mariners' responsibility to maintain their digital Sailing Directions file by ensuring that the latest version is always downloaded. If the mariner chooses to print their own Sailing Directions booklet, it is imperative that the current Notices to Mariners updates are applied. Please check this page by the 15th of the month to verify the last update date for the booklet that has been downloaded, and download a new copy as required. Do not leave port without it!

*509 VANCOUVER FRASER PORT AUTHORITY – VERTICAL CLEARANCE OF THE ALEX FRASER BRIDGE

As of May 9, 2019, the vertical clearance of the Alex Fraser Bridge has been reduced by 3.5 metres - from 57 metres charted vertical clearance to 53.5 metres temporary vertical clearance.

The Vancouver Fraser Port Authority (VFPA) requires that, during freshet period (May 1 through July 31, 2019), a minimum 3 metres overhead safety clearance must be maintained between the highest point of the ship and the underside of the bridge deck, due to increased water levels. As such, all ships intending to transit the Alex Fraser bridge with an air draft in excess of 50 metres, must report the air draft to the VFPA and Pacific Pilotage Authority (PPA) at least 24 hours in advance, and receive approval prior to transit.

116.1  A red light at the north and south sides of the moveable span placed at centre channel stays on at all times when the bridge is in the down position. When the bridge is being lifted (raised or lowered), the light flashes until the bridge is in the fully open position and then it turns off. A green light at the north and south sides starts flashing when the bridge is in the fully open position and stopped. This is the green signal for the vessel to proceed.
116.2  Aerial obstruction lights are at the north and south sides of the span. They are placed at the free end of the moveable span (west side of the moveable span). The lights come on when the bridge is in the fully open position.
