 Where an object of natural growth on any land to which these Regulations apply exceeds in elevation any of the surfaces referred to in paragraphs 4(a) to (c), the Minister may make a direction that the owner or occupier of the land on which the object is growing remove the excessive growth.

Disposal of Waste

 No owner or occupier of any land to which these Regulations apply shall permit that land or any part of it to be used for the disposal of any waste that is edible by or attractive to birds.

  • (a) a surface abutting the end of the strip associated with runway approach 08 consisting of an inclined plane 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 7 927 m measured horizontally from the end of the strip; the outer ends of the imaginary horizontal line being 1 264.05 m from the projected centre line; said imaginary horizontal line being 158.54 m measured vertically above the elevation at the end of the strip; and

  • (b) a surface abutting the end of the strip associated with runway approach 26 consisting of an inclined plane having a ratio of 1 m measured vertically to 20 m measured horizontally rising to an imaginary horizontal line drawn at right angles to the projected centre line of the strip and distant 7 927 m measured horizontally from the end of the strip; the outer ends of the imaginary horizontal line being 1 264.05 m from the projected centre line; said imaginary horizontal line being 396.35 m measured vertically above the elevation at the end of the strip.

PART IIIDescription of the Outer Surface

The outer surface, shown on Toronto Island Airport Zoning Plan No. 20-004-83-113, Sheets 2, 3, 4, 6, 7 and 8, dated October 26, 1984, is an imaginary surface located at a common plane established at a constant elevation of 76 m above the assigned elevation of the airport reference point except where that common plane is less than 9 m above the surface of the ground, the outer surface is an imaginary surface located at 9 m above the surface of the ground.

PART IVDescription of the Strip

The strip associated with runway 08-26 as shown on Toronto Island Airport Zoning Plan No. 20-004-83-113, Sheet 3, dated October 26, 1984, is 150 m in width, 75 m being on each side of the centre line of the runway and 1 280 m in length.

PART VDescription of Each Transitional Surface

Each transitional surface, shown on Toronto Island Airport Zoning Plan No. 20-004-83-113, Sheets 2, 3, and 4, dated October 26, 1984, is a surface consisting of 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 the centre line produced 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.
