Explanatory Notes – Notices to Mariners (NOTMAR)
Geographical positions refer directly to the graduations of the largest scale Canadian Hydrographic Service 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 and Preliminary Notices to Mariners – Section 1A of Notices to Mariners
These notices are indicated by a (T) or a (P), 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. For the list of charts affected by (T) & (P) notices, please refer to the current Notices to Mariners - Monthly Summary of Temporary and Preliminary Notices publication.

Chart Corrections – Section 2 of Notices to Mariners
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.
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.
Note: In the case of a 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 2021. 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

Navigational Warnings / Notices to Shipping
The Canadian Coast Guard (CCG) 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 CCG, 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 (NAVWARN) should be kept until superseded by Notices to Mariners or through revised charts issued by the Canadian Hydrographic Service (CHS).
NAVWARN are accessible on the applicable regional page on the CCG Navigational Warnings website at http://nis.ccg-gcc.gc.ca.
CHS is reviewing the impact of these changes with CCG and together are preparing an action plan on the issuing of chart revisions.
For further information, contact your regional NAVWARN Issuing Desk.

SECTION 1 - GENERAL AND SAFETY INFORMATION
Canadian Coast Guard Publication – Comments and Suggestions on Notices to Mariners (NOTMAR) Publications
In an effort to continuously improve the Notices to Mariners publications and to provide the most efficient service possible, the Notices to Mariners team invites all mariners and other interested parties to submit comments and suggestions on possible improvements to its various publications and services at the following email address: Notmar.XNCR@dfo-mpo.gc.ca.
Transport Canada – COVID-19 Measures, Updates and Guidance
(Recurrent publication of notice *401/20, originally published in the Notices to Mariners – Monthly Western Edition 04/2020 publication.)
Please refer to the link below for the latest updates to
transportation related measures taken by Transport Canada in
response to the evolving novel Coronavirus disease
(COVID-19):

Canadian Hydrographic Service – Notices to Mariners for Changes in Buoy Shape
(Recurrent publication of notice *906/20, originally published in the Notices to Mariners – Monthly Western Edition 09/2020 publication.)
As part of the CHS Digital Transformation and for the sake of economy, CHS will no longer systematically issue Notices to Mariners (NTM) for buoy shape changes only. These changes will, however, be applied to electronic navigation charts (ENCs) where applicable. The paper and raster versions will be updated during the New Edition process.
Anguniaqvia Niqiqyuam Marine Protected Area (ANMPA) And Tarium Niryutait Marine Protected Areas (TNMPA) – Beluga And Bowhead Whale Protection: Voluntary Avoidance And Slowdown Areas
(Recurrent publication of notice *506/21, originally published in the Notices to Mariners – Monthly Western Edition 05/2021 publication.)
The two established Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) in Canada’s
Western Arctic are located within the Inuvialuit Settlement
Region, as such all activities must comply with the
Inuvialuit Final Agreement. Protection and preservation
of Arctic wildlife, the environment and biological
productivity is one of the principles of the Inuvialuit Final
Agreement and it is this principle that led the Inuvialuit
Regional Corporation and the Inuvialuit Game Council to
initiate establishment of the Western Arctic MPAs. The waters
in and near the MPAs, and the offshore marine habitats of the
Beaufort Sea and Amundsen Gulf, are important summer foraging
habitats used seasonally (May-October) by the Eastern
Beaufort Sea beluga stock, and the Bering-Chukchi-Beaufort
bowhead population.
Regulatory Protection Measures
All whale species are protected under the Marine Mammal
Regulations, pursuant to the Fisheries Act. Within
the boundaries of the MPAs, a general prohibition is set out
in the Regulations, pursuant to the Oceans Act. Any
incident with a marine mammal within the MPAs must be
reported within two hours after its occurrence, to the
Canadian Coast Guard. For marine wildlife sightings and
incidents such as collisions that occur outside the MPAs or
for any situation involving a marine mammal that is dead or
in trouble, contact Fisheries and Oceans Canada, Inuvik
office at (867) 777-7500.
For more information on the ANMPA and TNMPA, including local
contacts and species specific minimum distances, see Section
A2 - Notices 5 and 5A.3 of the Notices to Mariners Annual
Edition 2021.
Voluntary Protection Measures
Voluntary measures are in effect from June 1st to October 31st, 2021. See map above.
These measures apply to merchant vessels, cruise ships, small
vessels and adventure craft within the boundaries of the MPAs
and the additional identified areas to prevent collisions
with whales and to mitigate the underwater noise generated by
the vessels. These measures should only be taken when they
will not jeopardize navigational safety.
Avoid (red area): To reduce the risk of
underwater noise disturbance and collisions with whales
within the MPAs, vessels should avoid transiting through the
MPAs if possible. If passage through this area is required,
vessels should slow down to a maximum speed through the water
of 10 knots and post a lookout such as a marine mammal
observer in order to increase the chances of seeing the
whales and thus taking necessary measures to avoid them. If
bypassing the whales is not possible, slow down and wait for
the animals to move away to a distance greater than 400
metres (0.215 nautical miles) before resuming original speed
up to 10 knots. It is more difficult to see the animals in
rain, fog, or in rough sea states, therefore increased
caution is recommended.
Slow down to 10 knots or less (yellow area):
To reduce the risk of underwater noise disturbance and
collisions with whales within this area, it is recommended
that vessels should slow down to a maximum speed through the
water of 10 knots, remain in the navigation and marked
community supply channels and post a lookout.
These voluntary measures are secondary to rights under the
Inuvialuit Final Agreement.

*803/21West Coast Haida Gwaii – Trial Voluntary Protection Zone for Shipping
Reference: Notice *107/21 is cancelled.
Trial Voluntary Protection Zone for Shipping, West Coast Haida Gwaii (formerly Queen Charlotte Islands)
Haida Gwaii’s remote location, rugged coastline, variable sea and weather conditions, and rich ecological and cultural heritage make it vulnerable to the potential for pollution from shipping breakdowns and accidents. Increasing the distance vessels travel offshore can increase the amount of time available to address propulsion, steering or other issues, and the likelihood of a towing vessel being able to respond to a vessel that is disabled or drifting. This in turn reduces the risk of grounding and oil spills.
A trial Voluntary Protection Zone for Shipping on the West Coast of Haida Gwaii will be in effect from September 1, 2020 through October 31, 2021. In the Voluntary Protection Zone, commercial vessels of 500 gross tonnage or greater shall observe a minimum distance of 50 nautical miles offshore when transiting along the West Coast of Haida Gwaii with the following exceptions:
–Cruise vessels, to observe a minimum 12 nm distance from shore;
–Vessels transiting between Pacific Northwest ports
(Washington, Alaska, BC), to observe a minimum 25 nm distance
from shore;
–Tugs and barges (including pushing and towing
alongside), no minimum distance; and
–Fishing vessels, no minimum distance.
The Voluntary Protection Zone for Shipping coordinates are:
54⁰ 15.436' N |
133⁰ 04.788' W |
54⁰ 17.572' N |
134⁰ 02.484' W |
54⁰ 13.614' N |
134⁰ 19.427' W |
54⁰ 11.786' N |
134⁰ 30.841' W |
53⁰ 44.036' N |
134⁰ 32.677' W |
53⁰ 11.118' N |
134⁰ 16.412' W |
52⁰ 18.483' N |
133⁰ 20.917' W |
51⁰ 24.590' N |
132⁰ 04.081' W |
51⁰ 56.158' N |
131⁰ 01.830' W |
Vessels are requested to adhere to these distances on a voluntary basis and only when it does not jeopardize the safety of navigation, the vessel, the persons aboard, and the cargo.
