P.C. 1992-1172 1992-06-04

Whereas, pursuant to section 5.5 of the Aeronautics Act, a copy of the proposed Zoning Regulations respecting Repulse Bay Airport substantially in the form set out in the Schedule hereto, was published in two successive issues of the Canada Gazette Part I, on March 30th and April 6th, 1991, and in two successive issues of the Nunatsiaq News on July 5th and 12th, 1991 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 make the annexed Regulations respecting zoning at Repulse Bay Airport.

Short Title

 These Regulations may be cited as the Repulse Bay Airport Zoning Regulations.

Interpretation

  •  (1) In these Regulations,

    airport

    airport means the Repulse Bay Airport, in the vicinity of Repulse Bay, 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 surface

    approach surface means an imaginary inclined plane that extends upward and outward from each end of a strip, which approach surface is more particularly described in Part II of the schedule; (surface d’approche)

    outer surface

    outer surface means an imaginary surface located above and in the immediate vicinity of the airport, which outer surface 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 strip is more particularly described in Part IV of the schedule; (bande)

    transitional surface

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

  • (2) For the purposes of these Regulations, the elevation of the airport reference point is 12.8 m above sea level.

Application

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

General

 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 the Airport Reference Point

The airport reference point shown on Repulse Bay Airport Zoning Plan No. E.2846 dated April 23, 1990, is a point located on the centre line of runway 163-343 distant 518.15 m from the threshold of runway 343.

PART IIDescription of the Approach Surfaces

The approach surfaces, shown on Repulse Bay Airport Zoning Plan No. E.2846 dated April 23, 1990, are surfaces abutting each end of the strip associated with the runway designated 163-343, and are described as follows:

  • (a) a surface abutting the end of the strip associated with runway approach 163 consisting of an inclined plane having a ratio of 1 m measured vertically to 30 m measured horizontally rising to an imaginary horizontal line drawn at right angles to the projected centre line of the strip and distant 2 500 m measured horizontally from the end of the strip; the outer ends of the imaginary horizontal line being 295 m from the projected centre line; the said imaginary horizontal line being 83.3 m above the elevation at the end of the strip;

  • (b) a surface abutting the end of the strip associated with runway approach 343 consisting of an inclined plane having a ratio of 1 m measured vertically to 30 m measured horizontally rising to an imaginary horizontal line drawn at right angles to the projected centre line of the strip and distant 2 500 m measured horizontally from the end of the strip; the outer ends of the imaginary horizontal line being 295 m from the projected centre line; the said imaginary horizontal line being 83.3 m above the elevation at the end of the strip.

PART IIIDescription of the Outer Surface

The outer surface, shown on Repulse Bay Airport Zoning Plan No. E.2846 dated April 23, 1990, is an imaginary surface located at a common plane established at a constant elevation of 45 m above the elevation of the airport reference point, except that, 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 163-343, shown on Repulse Bay Airport Zoning Plan No. E.2846 dated April 23, 1990, is 90 m in width, 45 m being on each side of the centre line of the runway, and 1 156.3 m in length.

PART VDescription of Each Transitional Surface

Each transitional surface, shown on Repulse Bay Airport Zoning Plan No. E.2846 dated April 23, 1990, 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 projected centre line of the strip and 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 Lands to Which These Regulations Apply

The boundary of the outer limits of lands, shown on Repulse Bay Airport Zoning Plan No. E.2846 dated April 23, 1990, is a circle with a radius of 4 000 m centered on the airport reference point.
