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.

Heat Exchanger Remote Welded Plug System
922269
Laveer plans to develop a heat exchanger tube plugging system to replace a system that is 29 years old. The existing system uses obsolete technology that can no longer be maintained reliably. Welds performed with the system are pressure retaining and separate the reactor coolant from the light water used in the plant steam cycle. As such, the welds are critical to the containment boundary and safety of the plant. Laveer has extensive background in this process and the safety concerns associated with the existing system which positions us to produce a system for this task.

Engineering Feasibility Study
922504
The amount milk permeate that is currently used by the Dairy Distillery only represents a fraction the milk permeate available in the industry therefore this project is going to investigate the feasibility of utilizing milk permeate to produce ethanol for a variety of other markets (biofuel, commercial alcohol). The feasibility study will include developing an engineering based cost model and a market intelligence study to determine the viability of the project at a variety of throughputs.
