"This study is part of the Marine Geoscience for Marine Spatial Planning (MGMSP) Program which is a Government of Canada initiative focused on improving Impact Assessments and Regulatory Processes (IARP). Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) is one of five departments supporting Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) and Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) in this initiative. Within NRCan, the Geological Survey of Canada (GSC) provides federal expertise and capacity for the characterization and mapping of seabed conditions. Seafloor mapping and analyses provide a regional framework and baseline information in order to inform regulatory decisions and provide advice on management. This report addresses the Scotian Shelf Bioregion (SSB), with its extent delimited by DFO. Within the SSB, DFO has identified 48 Network Candidate Sites (NCS) which include existing and proposed sites of different size and regulatory intent. This report focuses on geoscience information that can contribute to the broader scientific assessment necessary to evaluate future implementation of the NCS"--Context and objectives, page 2.
