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.

Acoustic Design for Micropile Characterization and Foundation Installation
1002899
This project will advance a new concept in offshore acoustic imaging. The physics will be defined to address the requirements for high-resolution seismic beamforming of the geo-mechanical properties of the sub-seabed. The goal is to develop the acoustic imaging data acquisition and processing steps needed to characterize the formation volume surrounding micropiles supported platforms. The project will develop the acoustics as descending multiple sources generated from the advancements of a customized programmable impact drill. The design study will optimize the receivers' geometrical configurations, the generated signals, frequencies, power, transmitter coupling to the seabed, placement and type of receivers and sensors and the data processing.

Conceptual Design and Development of a New Acoustic Approach to Image Blockages in Pipelines
992729
This project will explore a new concept into acoustic imaging of the build-up of hydrates in deep, extended subsea production and drilling flowlines. The project will study the application of acoustics to better understand what creates undesirable flow restrictions that lower performance and create operational risks. In addition, the influence on multi-spectral acoustics from density variances related to the hydrocarbon flow and internal build-up will be studied and used to capture changes along the length of the flowline.

Development of an Optimized Ground Penetrating Radar with Advanced Beamforming Capabilities for Northern Pre-Route Commercial Land Surveys, Mine Detection, and Unexploded Ordnance Detection
926744
The goal of the project is to develop a novel Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) architecture that will provide unprecedented imaging of buried targets, such as landmines, unexploded ordnance, and to de-risk the determination of potential routes for the burial of fiber-optical communication lines in the complex soils of Northern regions. The primary focus of this project is the development of distinct new software modules for the Firm's ZoomSpace processing suite that enable unprecedented focusing and interference filtering, while delivering enhanced GPR imaging and augmented detection capability.
