Congratulations!

CHA 2011 Award Winner Brad Eisan, a Geodesy and Geomatics Engineering student at the University of New Brunswick.

The Canadian Hydrographic Association award was created in 1992 under the leadership of Barry M. Lusk, the National President of the Canadian Hydrographic Association, during the years 1987 to 1990.

The perpetual funds necessary to finance the award were earned by the CHA through the management of a CIDA project that was then under the direction of Thomas McCulloch, ex Director General of CCIW. Mr. McCulloch’s CIDA projects focused on creating hydrographic expertise in developing countries during a period of about 15 years. The CHA’s professional sponsorship of these endeavours provided real time support of worthwhile hydrographic related activities.

The first CHA “Award for Deserving Students” was made in 1993 and has continued providing the very generous $2000 per year assistance since that time.

In 2000, no award was made as all the applicants were judged to be non compliant. This means that none of the applications received were from students that met the rules criteria in respect to an appropriate faculty.
