Description
Summary
The Canadian Coast Guard's Vessels of Concern (VOC) Program (now Marine Environmental and Hazards Response: MEHR), Central Region, conducted a technical assessment of a vessel of concern located in Gatineau, Quebec, in the Lac Leamy outlet on November 10, 2020. Following receipt of the assessment report, it was determined by the MHER Program that the wreck presented a significant level of danger to public health, safety and welfare. Following this assessment, it was decided to proceed with the removal of the wreck in order to eliminate the identified hazards.
Description of work required
• Remove all submerged and immersed parts of the wreck;
- The wreck must be removed exclusively by sea using the necessary means (barge, crane, divers, etc.) to dismantle the vessel from the water.

• Mitigation measures must be put in place to minimize the risk of environmental hazards caused by excavation and dismantling work. (see non-exhaustive list in Section 4)
- Mitigation measures will have to be put in place prior to the work to allow diving and recovery of parts of the wreck by the Musée Maritime de Charlevoix (MMC).

The project authority will authorize the start of removal work once the MMC has completed its work.
• Disposal of removed wreck
- The Musée maritime de Charlevoix (MMC) attaches historical value to the wreck and may take possession, with the approval of the project manager, of any material, equipment or remains of the wreck when it is removed from the water.
