The Canadian Coast Guard published the VN-200 chart aimed at identifying maintained depths of the Saint Lawrence Waterway including certain anchorage areas.
Considering the natural over-depth observed at the TR1 anchorage station in the port of Trois-Rivières, it has been agreed to exceptionally allow a depth of 11.3 meters instead of 10.7 meters.
This depth is observed within the polygon defined by the following coordinates:
Point A : 46 20.227N 072 32.454WPoint B : 46 20.157N 072 32.060WPoint C : 46 20.074N 072 32.040WPoint D : 46 19.557N 072 32.892WPoint E : 46 19.560N 072 32.897WPoint F : 46 19.639N 072 32.921WPoint G : 46 19.950N 072 32.661WPoint H : 46 20.093N 072 32.550W
In order to obtain an anchoring authorization, every vessel is required to communicate and comply with the procedures established by the Trois-Rivières Port Authority.
