            description:  Additional information from ICES for the vessel PARIZEAU from CANADA. Name : PARIZEAU Flag : CANADA - CA (ISO Country Code) Call Sign : CGBS Title : CCGS Platform Class : 31 Research vessel IMO : 6711728 Commissioned Date : 1967 Decommissioned Date : 2001 Current Length : 57.8 Built : 1967 Notes : Named 2001-04 in 2003 and Destiny Empress in 2005 Additional Information Sources: - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CCGS_Parizeau - http://www.shipspotting.com/gallery/photo.php?lid=2241 General Comments: From Miramar: 2001-04 in 2003 and Destiny Empress in 2005 Parizeau served with DFO's Pacific Region from 1966 until 1992 at the Institute of Ocean Sciences, Sidney, BC when she was transferred to DFO's Maritime Region where she was attached to the Bedford Institute of Oceanography, Dartmouth. Parizeau served in the DFO's Maritime Region as a replacement vessel for her soon to be decommissioned sister CSS Dawson. Following the transfer of the Canadian Coast Guard to DFO in 1995 and the merger of the DFO science and enforcement vessels into CCG, the Parizeau's prefix was changed from CSS to CCGS (Canadian Coast Guard Ship), the superstructure colour scheme was changed from science vessel white, with a buff coloured funnel to the Canadian Coast Guard red hull and white superstructure colour scheme. Parizeau crew members became employees of the Canadian Coast Guard, a Special Operating Agency of the Department of Fisheries and Oceans Canada. Parizeau ceased government science programs in June, 2000.
