Status Report on Major Crown Projects
Mid-Shore Patrol Vessels
Description
The Mid-Shore Patrol Vessels (MSPV) project will acquire 9 Mid-Shore Patrol Vessels for the Canadian Coast Guard (CCG) Fleet - five of the nine MSPV will be used primarily to support the Conservation and Protection Program in the Maritimes, Quebec and Pacific Regions. The other four vessels will be used in a joint program with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) to enhance maritime security along the Great Lakes – St. Lawrence Seaway system. This project serves two purposes:
Fleet Renewal - the acquisition of conservation and Protection patrol vessels represents the first step in modernization of the CCG fleet and will ensure the integrity of the fishery monitoring program and will provide the capacity for DFO to support the strategic role in fisheries enforcement; and
Maritime Security - the acquisition of MSPV for Maritime Security will allow CCG, in conjunction with the RCMP, to respond to the Government's commitment to enhance the security of the nation's coasts and waterways.
Project Phase
The MSPV Project is currently in the Construction phase.
