The SmartICE team are busy assembling SmartBUOYS to get them ready for the winter season.
Rex Holwell Jr. is the Northern Production Lead.
He says the team are still in the production stage and made six buoys out of 14 so far.
They are also planning to hire youth in Hopedale, Makkovik and Nain for a part time position in the near future.
The youth will be trained to provide updates about the ice along the coast, follow along with the Smart Ice Operators and more.
Holwell Jr will also be setting up a Community Engagement Committee for elders to give him advice about where to put the buoys and more.
There will be a workshop also on getting to know the Inuit Dialects
There will be more information about the positions and workshops once it becomes available.
