Annex A: CCG Capital ExpendituresProject Description• Communications Systems Infrastructure Refurbishment (Phase 2) - Refurbish communications systems andassociated infrastructure, including MF-HF receivers and transmitters, VHF-DF antenna systems and satellitelinks, radars, UPS, and test infrastructure in all regions. It also includes consolidating the Prince RupertMicrowave Network by adding two microwave sites and includes four microwave links.• VHF Radio Refurbishment to Baseline - Refurbish to baseline condition the MCTS very high frequency (VHF)radios, in all regions, that are obsolete or at risk of failure.• Arctic Telecommunication Refurbishment - Bring the Arctic Telecommunications network/infrastructure backto baseline condition, by replacing obsolete HF, MF, VHF, UHF, and satellite communications equipment.• MCTS Replacement of the Vessel Traffic Operator Support System (VTOSS) in the Pacific Region - A versionof the National Integrated Information System on Marine Navigation (INNAV) that includes the interface for theAutomatic Identification System (AIS) will be upgraded to incorporate the essential operational functionalitiesthat are required by the Pacific Region. This upgraded version of INNAV, as well as the required new equipment,will be implemented in the Pacific Region only.• MCTS Tofino Radar Refurbishment - Replace the existing “dark room” radar displays with digitized daylightdisplays, and complete other minor renovations and infrastructure modifications to enable daylight operationsat the Tofino MCTS centre in the Pacific Region.• Very High Frequency (VHF) / Digital Selective Calling (DSC) Great Lakes and St. Lawrence - Install shore-basedGlobal Marine Distress and Safety System (GMDSS) VHF/DSC at select MCTS Centres and Remote Control Outlets(RCOs) along the Great Lakes (Central and Arctic Region) and the St. Lawrence River (Quebec Region).• MCTS Transmitter/Communication Systems Refurbishment (Phase 3) - Refurbishment of MCTS transmittersand electronics. Project includes creation of Technical Solution Centres in each region.Projects Approved in Principle, Awaiting Funding• MCTS Information Logging System - Replace the outdated Message Data System and automatic messagebroadcasting system (MDS/NAVTEX) with a new MCTS Logging System at 22 MCTS Centres.• MCTS Continuous Marine Broadcast Refurbishment - Replace existing outdated Continuous Marine Broadcastequipment, including a completely automated text-to-speech capability, at <strong>Canadian</strong> MCTS Centres across Canada.• VHF-DF Direction Finding System - Refurbish to baseline condition the very high frequency direction findingsystem, in all regions, that are obsolete or at risk of failure. Additional VHF-DF coverage may also be provided.• MCTS National Vessel Traffic Management Information System (VTMIS) Replacement - Replace the NationalInformation System on Marine Navigation (INNAV) by a VTMIS that would integrate all MS approved capabilities,mandates and data requirements.• MCTS Communication Towers Replacement (Phase 3) - Refurbish to baseline condition those MCTScommunication towers identified as the highest priority. The towers identified are those that will be are at high riskof failure in the near future due to rust-out and overloading.• MCTS Communication Sites Refurbishment (Phase 3) - Refurbish existing MCTS communication sites used byCCG across Canada to baseline condition. Work includes replacing or refurbishing equipment, buildings, trailers,roads, and transmission lines, and replacing fuel tank systems and spill containment structures and physicalsecurity to meet national and regional standards.Environmental Response ServicesProjects Under Way• Arctic Environmental Response Equipment - Invest in environmental response equipment for the <strong>Coast</strong> <strong>Guard</strong>’sArctic Environmental Response capability.Projects Approved in Principle, Awaiting Funding• Environmental Response Equipment Refurbishment - Refurbish the CCG ER equipment by returning the assetsback to baseline condition.Total Estimated Cost(millions of dollars)TEC Used2009-2010 ForecastTEC Remaining17.9 4.7 4.4 8.817.6 15.3 2.1 0.216.7 11.7 1.4 3.64.7 0.4 2.4 1.93.0 2.4 0.6 -8.5 7.3 0.1 1.117.7 0.6 2.7 14.44.6 - - 4.64.6 - - 4.618.1 - 1.4 16.739.2 - - 39.218.1 - - 18.118.1 - - 18.12.0 0.2 1.8 -17.9 - - 17.969BUSINESS PLAN 2009-2012
