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 2018. 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.
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.

CANADIAN HYDROGRAPHIC SERVICE – PRINT ON DEMAND CHARTS - CARE AND USE
Background
By providing nautical charts to the public, the goal of the Canadian Hydrographic Service (CHS) is to provide services for safe navigation in a fiscally responsible manner. As a result, CHS continues to expand its portfolio of nautical paper charts that are printed using Print On Demand (POD) technology. These charts are easily recognized by their whiter paper and the coloured logo of the Canadian Hydrographic Service. This new technology enables CHS to print charts in a more efficient manner, while enhancing chart content through being able to quickly add new and important information. POD technology provides customers with up-to-date charts without the historical hand-drawn corrections or glued-on patches. Additionally, this technology eliminates out-of-stock situations which arise with the traditional printing and warehousing methods. In the event of a national emergency, CHS can respond to the appropriate authorities with the best available information very quickly.
Care of Your POD Chart
CHS encourages its customers to handle the POD charts more carefully than the traditional lithographic charts. When plotting information on POD charts, use HB pencils and apply limited pressure. Testing has suggested that an Indian gum eraser is more effective than alternatives when used on the product. This eraser is also suitable for charts printed using lithographic processes.
CANADIAN HYDROGRAPHIC SERVICE, TRANSPORT CANADA – NAVIGATION SAFETY - ECDIS
Mariners are advised that ECDIS may not display some isolated shoal depths when operating in "base or standard display" mode. Route planning and monitoring alarms for these shoal depths may not always be activated. To ensure safe navigation and to confirm that a planned route is clear of such dangers, mariners should visually inspect the planned route and any deviations from it using ECDIS configured to display "all data". The automated voyage planning check function should not be solely relied upon.
CANADIAN HYDROGRAPHIC SERVICE – MODIFICATIONS TO THE 2018 CANADIAN TIDE AND CURRENT TABLES VOLUME 6 – DISCOVERY PASSAGE & WEST COAST OF VANCOUVER ISLAND
The Canadian Hydrographic Service of the Pacific Region has recently been informed that there is an error in the 2018 Canadian Tide and Current Tables Volume 6 - Discovery Passage & West Coast of Vancouver Island, page 120, Index no. 8512 – NEAH BAY.
Mariners should replace the values for Neah Bay,
Index no. 8512 using the attached Table 3 for page
120 provided in
Section 1 of this monthly edition.

CANADIAN HYDROGRAPHIC SERVICE – NEW LOCATION TO DOWNLOAD PATCHES
The Canadian Hydrographic Service has moved patch downloads from http://www.chs-shc.gc.ca/patches/ to ftp://ftp.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/patches/. The PDF versions of the monthly editions of Notices to Mariners prior to July 2017 are published with the previous location to download patches, while the HTML versions have the updated hyperlinks to the new location. These changes have also been applied to the “Search Chart Corrections” service on the Notices to Mariners website (https://www.notmar.gc.ca/corrections-en.php).
*1201 CANADIAN COAST GUARD PUBLICATION – NOTICES TO MARINERS MONTHLY EDITION - PAGE ON “ADVISORY NOTICES TO SHIPPING (BROADCAST AND WRITTEN)” NOW UPDATED TO REFLECT CHANGE TO NAVIGATIONAL WARNING
In the Notices to Mariners Monthly Edition, the page concerning “Advisory Notices to Shipping (Broadcast and Written),” which can be found on page iii, is now updated to reflect the change to Navigational Warning, including the new contact information for the Marine Communications and Traffic Services centres.

Mariners and clients are advised that the NAVWARN Issuing Service will launch in January 2019 as indicated below:
Effective with the scheduled regional launch of NAVWARN services, the new system will disseminate NAVWARNs in the following manner: 1. emails to the MCTS Centres for immediate broadcast 2. emails to subscribers, as based on their chosen preferences for areas and subject 3. an automatic upload to the new national NAVWARN website Navigational warnings published on existing regional websites will migrate to the national CCG e-Navigation Maritime Information Portal located at http://www.marinfo.gc.ca/e-nav. On this website, mariners and clients can access their region, use the search interface to find NAVWARNs by marine area or subject, and find information on how to enroll in the subscription service. For more information, contact your nearest MCTS Centre or forward any questions to InfoPol@dfo-mpo.gc.ca.

The alphanumeric designator consists of an alpha character which identifies the CCG NAVWARN Issuing Desk (formerly called NOTSHIP Issuing Authority). The alpha character is followed by a number commencing with the number “1” for the first NAVWARN issued each year and subsequently increasing with each new notice until years’ end. Alpha designators utilized in the Canadian NAVWARN service are as follows:
A – Arctic 4.3.1.1 Broadcast of NAVWARNs The broadcast times and radio frequencies for scheduled NAVWARN broadcasts by CCG MCTS Centres are listed in Part 2 of this manual. Broadcasts to ships, navigational warnings contain urgent information concerning the establishment or change in condition of a marine facility, service, procedure or navigational hazard. These are broadcast in full for an initial period of 48 hours and then placed on the active list for an additional period of 5 days where they are broadcast in an abbreviated format. After 7 days, the NAVWARNs are no longer broadcast but will remain available on the national NAVWARN website until cancelled or transitioned to Notices to Mariners (NOTMAR). Table 4-16 - Distribution of Navigational Warnings
Masters and clients wishing to receive email notification of new navigational warnings must first subscribe to the NAVWARN System, selecting both their marine area of interest and the various categories of warning messages they wish to receive. Once issued, new NAVWARNs are uploaded to the applicable regional NAVWARN page of the CCG e-nav Maritime Information Portal, where filters can be applied to assist in searching and displaying NAVWARNs of interest. Masters are reminded of the regulatory requirement to report any danger, potential danger or hazard to navigation which they may encounter. Reports should be forwarded to the appropriate MCTS Centre as soon as possible to ensure the widest distribution to mariners through broadcast of NAVWARNs.
