14. Give a brief description of the area of operations and type of work to be done and science objective:

Area of Ops: Canada Basin of the Arctic Ocean, with a focus on the southern part, including within the US and Canadian EEZs.

Science Objectives: Collect seismic data to fulfill the requirements of Article 76 of the Convention on the Law of the Sea

Note: This is a collaborative two-icebreaker experiment with the Geological Survey of Canada using CCGS Louis S. St-Laurent.

Operational Plan Description
No response

Will the vessel be operating within 200 miles of a foreign country?   Yes
If yes, Please list them here:
Canada

16. Will you be contacting Native communities to inform them of your intended icebreaker research activities?  Yes
If yes, please list the native communities and contacts:
Alaska Eskimo Whaling Commission - Harry Brower BASC - Glenn Sheehan

17. Will Marine Mammal Protection Act, NEPA or Endangered Species Act consultation or permitting be required?  Yes
If yes, please provide documentation.:
No response

18a. Cruise Plan and Description of Operations:
Provide as much detail as possible about the type of operations and sampling to be conducted, daily schedule and hours of operation, type of equipment to be used and any other information that will help us prepare for this cruise. Use additional pages or send corrected drafts as necessary. If this is a multi-investigator cruise, please include a list of Co-PI's who will be submitting operational science plans:

ECS Healy 2010 will be the third year of two-icebreaker operations with CCGS Louis S. St-Laurent. The experiment takes place in the sea ice covering the Canada Basin. Healy collects multibeam bathymetric data and Louis collects multichannel seismic reflection and refraction data. For light to moderate ice conditions, Healy leads and breaks ice for Louis. For heavy ice conditions where it is unsafe to collect seismic data, Louis leads Healy to collect multibeam data. Depending on ice conditions (i.e., if track lines are located in open water), Healy may be able to leave Louis to conduct single-ship multibeam acquisition and dredging, similar to operations in previous years. While preliminary tracklines have been identified for U.S. purposes (map uploaded 28 Oct. 2009), the Canadian tracks have not yet been determined. Final tracks are yet to be determined based on results of 2009 two-icebreaker experiment (being evaluated in fall/winter, 2009/2010). Operations are 24- hour.
