LAWRENCE MARITIME TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM Mike Piskur† ABSTRACT: The Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Maritime Transportation System (“MTS”) bears critical importance to the economic competitiveness of Canada and the United States (“US”). Maritime transportation comprises both a major economic driver and job creator for both countries. As a cost-effective and highly efficient means of transporting raw materials and finished products to market, the MTS is essential to agricultural, mining, and manufacturing supply chains that frequently stretch across the US-Canada border and beyond. Yet management of the MTS is fragmented, with responsibility for various system components scattered across numerous federal agencies in both the US and Canada. This fragmentation results in a dearth of transparency, confusing and disjointed governmental authority, higher user costs, barriers to establishing new markets, and overall reduced system competitiveness.

Authors: Jonathan Andrews, David Babb, Mike McKernan, Brian Horton, and Dr. David Barber The Centre for Earth Observation Science University of Manitoba Winnipeg, MB. Corresponding author: Jonathan Andrews, [email protected] About this Assessment Context and Goals This climate-impact assessment was completed by researchers at the University of Manitoba’s Centre for Earth Observation Science (CEOS) with financial support from Transport Canada. This work is one component of a broader CEOS-Transport Canada partnership running from 2014-2016, which is a product of Transport Canada’s Network of EXpertise on Transportation in Arctic Waters (NEXTAW) program. NEXTAW is part of Transport Canada’s Northern Transportation Adaptation Initiative. The motivation for this project at CEOS and Transport Canada stems from an awareness of the significant environmental changes occurring in the Canadian Arctic and a shared desire to better understand these changes and the impact they may have on marine transportation in the area. This assessment examines the impact of climate change in Hudson Bay, Hudson Strait, and Foxe Basin, and considers the resultant vulnerabilities and opportunities for the Port of Churchill’s marine operations extending to 2030 and 2050. Changes in sea ice and their consequences for shipping routes are of particular interest.

Sea-ice consulting, field operations support, software, instruments SUMMARY This document reports on the technical pre-feasibility of Alberta exporting bitumen blend from the oil sands north to the Beaufort Sea coastline and from there, by ice-class tankers, to world markets in the Asia-Pacific region and the Atlantic coasts. Components of the Transportation System Components of a petroleum transport system to achieve this can include: Road, rail and river barging Pipelines for transporting dilbit and returning diluent to Fort McMurray, possibly incorporating the existing Norman Wells line Product storage facilities on the Arctic coast (either on land or on moored tankers), where diluent would also be separated from dilbit to return to Fort McMurray. Port facilities on the coast for supply and logistics. There are multiple choices for storage and port facilities in the NWT and Yukon. An undersea pipeline to an offshore loading terminal that would be ice resistant in design, from which tankers could travel to markets both in the Pacific and Atlantic regions. Alternatively, a similar scenario would see road/rail/pipeline transport of bitumen to the port of Churchill, Manitoba, for loading to ocean-going transport vessels.
