    Description

    Canada’s Extended Continental Shelf (ECS) Program collected data in the Arctic Ocean to support the delineation of the outer limits of the extended continental shelf. Over the next year, the Government of Canada will finalize its scientific case for an extended continental shelf in the Arctic Ocean and file a formal submission to the United Nations’ Commission on the Limits of the Continental Shelf (CLCS). To meet the target submission date, it is necessary for Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) to contract services to review the submission text and scientific data, assist in the revision of the submission to ensure consistency with United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS), Guidelines of the CLCS and recommendations made by the CLCS since 2013. External expertise is required to produce additional text that will make a scientifically-robust case for the outer limits and the affinity of the extended continental shelf with the Canadian continental landmass. Expert advice is required on the development of a high level presentation to the CLCS and post-submission activities to prepare for future engagement with the CLCS during the submission review process.
