  • Annual Edition 2021 A6 – Notice 13 - Page 1 Notices to Mariners 1 to 46 Section a – Aids to Navigation and Marine Safety
    Notices to Mariners 1 to 46 Section A – Aids to Navigation and Marine Safety A6 Charts and Publications 13 Navigation Safety Regulations, 2020, and Provisional List of Charts The Navigation Safety Regulations, 2020 require all ships in waters under Canadian jurisdiction, to have on board, maintain and use appropriate charts, tide tables, lists of lights and other nautical publications issued by or on the authority of the Canadian Hydrographic Service. An up-to-date list of Canadian charts and nautical publications is available online in the Monthly Edition of Notices to Mariners at www.notmar.gc.ca or www.charts.gc.ca. ACCEPTANCE OF NAUTICAL PUBLICATIONS IN ELECTRONIC FORM IN CANADA The Navigation Safety Regulations, 2020 (NSR 2020) require the carriage and use of charts and nautical publications. Many nautical publications in Canada are now available in electronic form and can be downloaded from the Internet in PDF (Chart 1 – Symbols, Terms and Abbreviations, chart catalogues, Notices to Mariners (NOTMAR), Sailing Directions, List of Lights, Buoys and Fog Signals, Annual Edition of Notices to Mariners, Radio Aids to Marine Navigation, CCG Ice Navigation in Canadian Waters). Some vessels may carry publications in electronic form issued by another Administration (i.e., Admiralty Digital Publications) as per NSR 2020 Division 6. IMO circular entitled IMO requirements on carriage of publications on board ships (MSC-MEPC.2/Circ.2) allows electronic publications provided they have been issued by the IMO, an Administration or an organization authorized by an Administration. The electronic document should also “be treated in accordance with the document control procedures in the ship’s SMS including procedures for timely update.” However, as an exception, IMO does require the International Code of Signals and the IAMSAR - Volume III must be always available in hard copy to ensure accessibility and portability for emergency use.
