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.

Advanced Digital Seismometer and Full Bandwidth Vibration Monitoring System
882719
Seismometers, geophones and vibration sensors are used in earthquake monitoring, resource industry and research areas. There is a current need for affordable seismometers and vibration monitoring systems that can detect broader range of frequency, with flexible installation, flexible output format, easy data transfer, and real- time monitoring capability. However, this can not be achieved by slight modifications to any existing products currently in the market.
The objective of this project is to develop new advanced digital seismometers and very broadband vibration monitoring systems, using Symroc’s revolutionary new technology to fundamentally overcome the detection limitations, and tackling the key challenges to the industry.
