AGS Talk/Webinar Series Upcoming Talk "Greening of the Maritimes - The Energy Transition." Presented by Professor Grant Wach, D.Phil., FGS, P. Geo Thursday October 22th, 2:00pm NDT (1:30pm ADT) Hosted by Jared Butler & Anne Westhues (NL GAC) & Dave Lentz (AGS) For further information on Dr. Grant Wach: Professor Grant Wach Bio - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - We will be using ZOOM (with the enhanced security) for this presentation, with the Meeting ID & password that will be sent out to members the day before the lecture. If you haven't used Zoom it only takes a minute to download. Moderator will be on line 15 min. before the talk, so join us & catch up; it is AGS remember! Please don't post logon details anywhere public, but you can share with others you think might be interested. Just as a reminder, ZOOM is very easy to use.. turning your video & (or) your audio on & off is an option, & if you have bandwidth issues, turning your projected video "off" can help. During presentations please mute your audio; Moderator may be able to do that, but just in case...to remove background noise. For questions you can use the chat to queue up " then unmute yourself when I ask you to go ahead; this just tries to reduce background noise. Afterwards, we will just open it up to further discussion as the system is voice activated. Looking forward to seeing those that can make it on ZOOM.

This prescription includes significant geologic criteria and requires scientific evidence to be provided to substantiate the State’s position. This presentation will explain some of these criteria and demonstrate its application with Canada’s case in the Atlantic. This case resulted in a submission that includes 1.2 million square km over which Canada would have sovereign jurisdiction over the natural resources on and under the seafloor beyond its present exclusive economic zone. In fact, Canada may well be the first country to have commercial development within its extended continental shelf, offshore of Newfoundland.
