Regulations Respecting Zoning at Halifax International Airport
P.C. 1994-432 1994-03-17
Whereas, pursuant to section 5.5 of the Aeronautics Act, a copy of the proposed Regulations respecting zoning at Halifax International Airport, substantially in the form set out in the schedule hereto, was published in two successive issues of the Canada Gazette Part I, on February 6th and 13th, 1993, and in two successive issues of The Mail-Star on March 15th and 16th, 1993, and in two successive issues of Le Courrier de la Nouvelle-Écosse on March 19th and 26th, 1993, and a reasonable opportunity was thereby afforded to interested persons to make representations to the Minister of Transport with respect thereto;
Therefore, His Excellency the Governor General in Council, on the recommendation of the Minister of Transport, pursuant to section 5.4 of the Aeronautics Act, is pleased hereby to revoke the Halifax International Airport Zoning Regulations, C.R.C., c. 85, and to make the annexed Regulations respecting zoning at Halifax International Airport, in substitution therefor.
Short Title
1 These Regulations may be cited as the Halifax International Airport Zoning Regulations.
Interpretation
2 (1) In these Regulations,
- airport
airport means the Halifax International Airport, in the County of Halifax, Province of Nova Scotia; (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 an 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 133 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 as follows:
(a) the land within the outer limit described in Part VI of the schedule; and
(b) the land directly under those portions of the approach surfaces that extend beyond the said outer limit.
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.
Aeronautical Facilities
5 No owner or lessee of any land to which these Regulations apply shall permit any part of that land to be used or developed in a manner that causes interference with any signals or communications to and from any aircraft or to and from any facilities used to provide services relating to aeronautics.
Natural Growth
6 Where an object of natural growth that is on any land to which these Regulations apply grows to a height that exceeds in elevation at the location of the object any of the surfaces referred to in section 4, the Minister may require that the owner or lessee of the land remove the excessive growth.
Disposal of Waste
7 No owner or lessee of any land to which these Regulations apply shall permit any part of that land to be used for the disposal of any waste that is edible by or attractive to birds.
SCHEDULE(Sections 2 and 3)
PART IDescription of the Airport Reference Point
The airport reference point, shown on Halifax International Airport Zoning Plan No. S-2449-24 dated March 30, 1990, is determined by measuring 1 372 m northeasterly along the centre line of runway 06-24 from the southwesterly end of runway 06 and thence measuring 122 m southeasterly at right angles from the said centre line.
The said airport reference point has Nova Scotia Grid Coordinates of N 4 971 371.71 m and E 5 577 972.20 m.
PART IIDescription of the Approach Surfaces
The approach surfaces, shown on Halifax International Airport Zoning Plan Nos. S-2449-1 to S-2449-28 inclusive, S-2449-30 and S-2449-32 to S-2449-39 inclusive, dated March 30, 1990, are planes abutting each end of the strips associated with runways 06-24 and 15-33 and are described as follows:
(a) an inclined plane abutting the end of the strip associated with the approach to runway 06 having a ratio of 1 m measured vertically to 50 m measured horizontally rising to an imaginary horizontal line drawn at right angles to the projected centre line of the strip and distant 15 000 m measured horizontally from the end of the strip; the outer ends of the imaginary horizontal line being 2 400 m from the projected centre line; said imaginary horizontal line being 300 m above the elevation at the end of the strip;
(b) an inclined plane abutting the end of the strip associated with the approach to runway 24 having a ratio of 1 m measured vertically to 50 m measured horizontally rising to an imaginary horizontal line drawn at right angles to the projected centre line of the strip and distant 15 000 m measured horizontally from the end of the strip; the outer ends of the imaginary horizontal line being 2 400 m from the projected centre line; said imaginary horizontal line being 300 m above the elevation at the end of the strip;
(c) an inclined plane abutting the end of the strip associated with the approach to runway 15 having a ratio of 1 m measured vertically to 50 m measured horizontally rising to an imaginary horizontal line drawn at right angles to the projected centre line of the strip and distant 15 000 m measured horizontally from the end of the strip; the outer ends of the imaginary horizontal line being 2 400 m from the projected centre line; said imaginary horizontal line being 300 m above the elevation at the end of the strip; and
(d) an inclined plane abutting the end of the strip associated with the approach to runway 33 having a ratio of 1 m measured vertically to 50 m measured horizontally rising to an imaginary horizontal line drawn at right angles to the projected centre line of the strip and distant 15 000 m measured horizontally from the end of the strip; the outer ends of the imaginary horizontal line being 2 400 m from the projected centre line; said imaginary horizontal line being 300 m above the elevation at the end of the strip.
PART IIIDescription of the Outer Surface
The outer surface, shown on Halifax International Airport Zoning Plan Nos.

PART IVDescription of the Strips
The strips, shown on Halifax International Airport Zoning Plan Nos. S-2449-23, S-2449-24 and S-2449-30, dated March 30, 1990, are described as follows:
(a) the strip associated with runway 06-24 is 300 m in width, 150 m being on each side of the centre line of the runway, and 3 166.66 m in length; and
(b) the strip associated with runway 15-33 is 300 m in width, 150 m being on each side of the centre line of the runway, and 2 467 m in length.
PART VDescription of Each Transitional Surface
Each transitional surface, shown on Halifax International Airport Zoning Plan Nos. S-2449-14, S-2449-23 to S-2449-25 inclusive and S-2449-30, dated March 30, 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 or with another transitional surface of an adjoining strip.
PART VIDescription of the Outer Limit
The outer limit, shown on Halifax International Airport Zoning Plan Nos. S-2449-13 to S-2449-15 inclusive, S-2449-23 to S-2449-25 inclusive and S-2449-29 to S-2449-31 inclusive, dated March 30, 1990, is a circle with a radius of 4 000 m centred on the airport reference point.
