The Canadian Association for Underwater Science (CAUS) is a self-regulating body dedicated to safety in underwater research through establishment and continual peer review of standards of practice for scientific diving.

This Standard sets down diving practices, which are universally accepted and proven in their use by the scientific community. It is a consensus document of the CAUS membership and it is subjected to periodic revision to ensure that it properly reflects advances in technology and procedures.
