SCHEDULE(Sections 1, 2 and 6)

In this schedule, all grid coordinates are in metres (m) and refer to the 1983 North American Datum - GRS80 Ellipsoid, 1989 adjustment (NAD83 Original), Zone 17, Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) projection. Grid coordinates have been computed using a combined average scale factor of 0.9996636.

In this schedule, all azimuth are measured clockwise and grid-referenced to 0 degrees north.

In this schedule, all elevation values are in metres (m) and are based on the Canadian Geodetic Vertical Datum of 1928 (CGVD28), 1978 Southern Ontario Adjustment.

In this schedule, Strip Surface 06-24 means the strip surface associated with runway 06-24 and Strip Surface 12-30 means the strip surface associated with runway 12-30, as defined in Part 4.

PART 4Strip Surfaces

The elevation of a strip surface at any point is equal to the elevation of the nearest point on the centre line of that strip surface. The elevation of the strip surface centre line between the strip surface end and the closest strip surface threshold is equal to the elevation of the strip surface end. The elevation of the strip surface centre line between the strip surface thresholds is calculated using a constant ratio between the elevations of the strip surface thresholds and the elevations of the points along the runway centre line that are set out in the tables to this Part.

The strip surfaces, as shown on sheets 21 and 22 of the zoning plan, are imaginary rectangular surfaces described as follows:

(a) Strip Surface 06-24 is 300 m in total width, being 150 m on either side of the centre line of the runway. The strip surface commences 60 m to the southwest of threshold 06 and ends 60 m to the northeast of threshold 24, having a total length of 2 864.40 m. The 06 end of the strip surface has an assigned elevation of 228.30 m and the 24 end of the strip surface has an assigned elevation of 230.30 m. The azimuth of the centre line of runway 06-24 is 48°00′09″. Threshold 06 has grid coordinates of 585 918.65 E and 4 779 270.52 N and threshold 24 has grid coordinates of 587 957.53 E and 4 781 106.17 N. The points between thresholds along strip surface 06-24 that determine the elevation of the strip surface centre line are set out in the following table:

Item	Starting Point	Starting Point Elevation (m)	End Point	End Point Elevation (m)	Distance Between Starting Point and End Point (m)	Constant Ratio Used to Calculate Elevation Between Starting Point and End Point

The strip surface commences 60 m to the west of threshold 12 and ends 60 m to the east of threshold 30, having a total length of 3 169.94 m. The 12 end of the strip surface has an assigned elevation of 235.50 m and the 30 end of the strip surface has an assigned elevation of 233.30 m. The azimuth of the centre line of runway 12-30 is 106°28′53″. Threshold 12 has grid coordinates of 585 089.80 E and 4 781 399.82 N and threshold 30 has grid coordinates of 588 013.44 E and 4 780 534.83 N. The points between thresholds along strip surface 12-30 that determine the elevation of the strip surface centre line are set out in the following table:

PART 5Transitional Surfaces

The elevation of a point on the lower edge of a transitional surface abutting a strip surface is equal to the elevation of the nearest point on the centre line of the abutting strip surface. The elevation of a point on the lower edge of a transitional surface abutting an approach surface is equal to the elevation of the nearest point on the centre line of the abutting approach surface.

Each transitional surface, as shown on sheets 16 to 18, 20 to 23, 27 and 28 of the zoning plan, is an imaginary inclined surface that extends upward and outward, from the lateral limits of the abutting strip surface and the abutting approach surface, at a ratio of 1 m measured vertically to 7 m measured horizontally and at right angles to the centre line of each abutting strip surface and approach surface to the intersection with the outer surface, or with another transitional surface.
