Regulations Respecting Zoning at Burwash Airport

P.C. 1995-1186 1995-07-26

Whereas, pursuant to section 5.5Footnote * of the Aeronautics Act, a copy of the proposed Regulations respecting zoning at Burwash Airport, substantially in the form annexed hereto, was published in two successive issues of the Canada Gazette Part I, on February 18 and 25, 1995, and in two successive issues of The Whitehorse Star on February 23 and 24, 1995, 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 5.4Footnote ** of the Aeronautics Act, is pleased hereby to make the annexed Regulations respecting zoning at Burwash Airport.

Short Title

1 These Regulations may be cited as the Burwash Airport Zoning Regulations.

Interpretation

  • 2 (1) In these Regulations,

    airport

    airport means the Burwash Airport, in the vicinity of Burwash Landing, in the Yukon Territory; (aéroport)

    airport reference point

    airport reference point means the point described in Part I of the schedule; (point de référence 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; (surfaceextérieure)

    strip

    strip means a rectangular portion of the landing area of the airport, including the runway, that is prepared for the take-off and landing of aircraft in a particular direction, which rectangular 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 the 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 793.7 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.

Building Restrictions

4 No person shall erect or construct, on any land to which these Regulations apply, a building, structure or object or an addition to an 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 Burwash Airport Zoning Plan No. E.3027, dated February 24, 1994, is a point located on the centre line of runway 10-28 distant 915 m from the threshold of runway 28.

PART IIDescription of the Approach Surfaces

The approach surfaces, shown on Burwash Airport Zoning Plan No. E.3027, dated February 24, 1994, are planes abutting each end of the strip associated with runway 10-28 and are described as follows:

  • (a) an inclined plane abutting the end of the strip associated with the approach to runway 10 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 the approach to runway 28 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 Burwash Airport Zoning Plan No. E.3027, dated February 24, 1994, is an imaginary plane established at a constant elevation of 45 m above the elevation of the airport reference point extending to the outer boundary described in Part VI, 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 10-28, shown on Burwash Airport Zoning Plan No. E.3027, dated February 24, 1994, is 150 m in width, 75 m being on each side of the centre line of the runway, and 1 950 m in length.

PART VDescription of the Transitional Surfaces

Each transitional surface, shown on Burwash Airport Zoning Plan No. E.3027, dated February 24, 1994, 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 Burwash Airport Zoning Plan No. E.3027, dated February 24, 1994, is a circle with a radius of 4 000 m centred on the airport reference point.
