Short Title

1 These Regulations may be cited as the Gjoa Haven Airport Zoning Regulations.

Interpretation

  • 2 (1) In these Regulations,

    airport

    airport means the Gjoa Haven Airport, in the vicinity of Gjoa Haven, in the Northwest Territories; (aéroport)

    airport reference point

    airport reference point means the point described in Part I of the schedule; (point de repère de l’aéroport)

    approach surfaces

    approach surfaces means the imaginary inclined planes that extend upward and outward from each end of a strip, which planes are more particularly described in Part II of the schedule; (surfaces d’approche)

    outer surface

    outer surface means the imaginary plane located above and in the immediate vicinity of the airport, which plane is more particularly described in Part III of the schedule; (surface extérieure)

    strip

    strip means the rectangular portion of the landing area of the airport, including the runway, prepared for the take-off and landing of aircraft in a particular direction, which portion is more particularly described in Part IV of the schedule; (bande)

    transitional surfaces

    transitional surfaces means the imaginary inclined planes that extend upward and outward from the lateral limits of a strip and its approach surfaces, which planes are more particularly described in Part V of the schedule. (surfaces de transition)

  • (2) For the purposes of these Regulations, the elevation of the airport reference point is 36.5 m above sea level.

Application

3 These Regulations apply to all land, including public road allowances, that is adjacent to or in the vicinity of the airport, which land is more particularly described in Part VI of the schedule.

General

4 No person shall erect or construct on any land to which these Regulations apply, any building, structure or object or any addition to any existing building, structure or object, the highest point of which will exceed in elevation at the location of that point

  • (a) the approach surfaces;

  • (b) the outer surface; or

  • (c) the transitional surfaces.

SCHEDULE(Sections 2 and 3)

PART IDescription of Airport Reference Point

The airport reference point, shown on Gjoa Haven Airport Zoning Plan No. E.2845, dated April 18, 1990 is a point located on the centre line of runway 130T-310T distant 670.55 m from the threshold of runway 310T.

PART IIDescription of the Approach Surfaces

The approach surfaces, shown on Gjoa Haven Airport Zoning Plan No. E.2845 dated April 18, 1990, are planes abutting each end of the strip associated with runway 130T-310T and are described as follows:

  • (a) an inclined plane abutting the end of the strip associated with runway approach 130T having a ratio of 1 m measured vertically to 40 m measured horizontally rising to an imaginary horizontal line drawn at right angles to the projected centre line of the strip and distant 3 000 m measured horizontally from the end of the strip; the outer ends of the imaginary horizontal line being 525 m from the projected centre line; said imaginary horizontal line being 75 m above the elevation at the end of the strip; and

  • (b) an inclined plane abutting the end of the strip associated with runway approach 310T having a ratio of 1 m measured vertically to 40 m measured horizontally rising to an imaginary horizontal line drawn at right angles to the projected centre line of the strip and distant 3 000 m measured horizontally from the end of the strip; the outer ends of the imaginary horizontal line being 525 m from the projected centre line; said imaginary horizontal line being 75 m above the elevation at the end of the strip.

PART IIIDescription of the Outer Surface

The outer surface, shown on Gjoa Haven Airport Zoning Plan No. E.2845, dated April 18, 1990, is an imaginary plane established at a constant elevation of 45 m above the elevation of the airport reference point, except that, where that plane is less than 9 m above the surface of the ground, the outer surface is located at 9 m above the surface of the ground.

PART IVDescription of the Strip

The strip associated with runway 130T-310T, shown on Gjoa Haven Airport Zoning Plan No. E.2845, dated April 18, 1990, is 150 m in width, 75 m being on each side of the centre line of the runway and 1 461.1 m in length.

PART VDescription of the Transitional Surfaces

Each transitional surface, shown on Gjoa Haven Airport Zoning Plan No. E.2845, dated April 18, 1990, is an inclined plane rising at a ratio of 1 m measured vertically to 7 m measured horizontally at right angles to the centre line and projected centre line of the strip, extending upward and outward from the lateral limits of the strip and its approach surfaces to an intersection with the outer surface.

PART VIDescription of the Land to Which These Regulations Apply

The outer boundary of the land to which these Regulations apply, shown on Gjoa Haven Airport Zoning Plan No. E.2845, dated April 18, 1990, is a circle with a radius of 4 000 m centred on the airport reference point.
