The Government of Canada is committed to provide the men and women of the Canadian Coast Guard with the modern equipment required to do their important work in a timely and efficient way.

Kate Young, Member of Parliament for London West, on behalf of the Honourable Judy M. Foote, Minister of Public Services and Procurement, announced today that as part of the National Shipbuilding Strategy small vessel construction program a $5-million contract has been awarded to Kanter Marine of St. Thomas, ON, for building two Channel Survey and Sounding Vessels (CSSV).

These two new vessels will replace the two current CSSVs operational in the St. Lawrence Seaway in Central and Arctic region, which have been in operation for an average of 37.5 years and are nearing the end of their lifespan.

The new CSSVs will provide private and commercial boaters with information about channel bottom conditions and water depth predictions. These vessels will also provide the Department of Fisheries and Oceans as well as other departments and agencies, the capability to monitor and observe marine and environmental conditions.
