Grants and Contributions
About this information
In June 2016, as part of the Open Government Action Plan, the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat (TBS) committed to increasing the transparency and usefulness of grants and contribution data and subsequently launched the Guidelines on the Reporting of Grants and Contributions Awards, effective April 1, 2018.
The rules and principles governing government grants and contributions are outlined in the Treasury Board Policy on Transfer Payments. Transfer payments are transfers of money, goods, services or assets made from an appropriation to individuals, organizations or other levels of government, without the federal government directly receiving goods or services in return, but which may require the recipient to provide a report or other information subsequent to receiving payment. These expenditures are reported in the Public Accounts of Canada. The major types of transfer payments are grants, contributions and \'other transfer payments\'.
Included in this category, but not to be reported under proactive disclosure of awards, are (1) transfers to other levels of government such as Equalization payments as well as Canada Health and Social Transfer payments. (2) Grants and contributions reallocated or otherwise redistributed by the recipient to third parties; and (3) information that would normally be withheld under the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act.

Towards river ice jam release flood modelling in TELEMAC: Testing of KHIONE and further module development
984646
The objectives of this project are to test and further advance river ice modelling capabilities in the open-source hydrodynamic modelling package TELEMAC. This will be achieved by testing the capabilities of the existing KHIONE module for simulating frazil ice generation, and through development and implementation of dynamic ice cover routines within TELEMAC. The long-term objective is to develop capabilities to model river ice break-up processes. These new routines will be tested with available data on river ice cover dynamics.

Assessment of Value Added Coproduct Options for Algal Wastewater
986179
The proposed project will be focused on conducting feasibility studies, at R&D scale, on creating multiple coproducts from the waste stream. Specifically, the project will include:
1. Researching the specifications of low, medium, and high value coproducts, conducting chemical analysis of Mara’s waste stream and coproducts, with particular focus on the nutritional value and the specifications required by the relevant product.
2. Reviewing literature and researching methods to separate lipid fractions from aqueous phase, performing feasibility trials to extract high omega-3 lipid fractions from the waste stream.
3. Optimizing ultrafiltration process to improve cost efficiency for producing medium value coproducts at scale.
