Regulations Respecting Zoning at Baker Lake Airport Whereas, pursuant to section 5.5* of the Aeronautics Act, a copy of the proposed Zoning Regulations respecting Baker Lake 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 10th and 17th, 1990, and in two successive issues of the News/North on March 12th, and 19th, 1990, 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 Baker Lake Airport. R.S., c. 33 (1st Supp.) These Regulations may be cited as the Baker Lake Airport Zoning Regulations. In these Regulations, airport means the Baker Lake Airport, in the vicinity of Baker Lake, in the Northwest Territories; (aéroport) airport reference point means the point described in Part I of the schedule; (point de repère de l’aéroport) 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) Minister[Revoked, SOR/93-401, s. 2] 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 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 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) For the purposes of these Regulations, the elevation of the airport reference point is 3.0 m above sea level. 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. 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 the approach surfaces; the outer surface; or the transitional surfaces. The airport reference point shown on Baker Lake Airport Zoning Plan No. E.2670 dated August 24, 1988, is a point located on the centre line of runway 161-341 distant 640.0 m from the threshold of runway 341. The approach surfaces, shown on Baker Lake Airport Zoning Plan No. E.2670, dated August 24, 1988, are surfaces abutting each end of the strip associated with the runway designated 161-341, and are described as follows: a surface abutting the end of the strip associated with runway approach 161 consisting of an inclined plane 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 75.0 m measured vertically above the elevation at the end of the strip; and a surface abutting the end of the strip associated with runway approach 341 consisting of an inclined plane 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 75.0 m measured vertically above the elevation at the end of the strip. The outer surface, shown on Baker Lake Airport Zoning Plan No. E.2670, dated August 24, 1988, 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. The strip associated with runway 161-341, shown on Baker Lake Airport Zoning Plan No. E.2670 dated August 24, 1988, is 150 m in width, 75 m being on each side of the centre line of the runway and 1 400 m in length. Each transitional surface, shown on Baker Lake Airport Zoning Plan No. E.2670 dated August 24, 1988, 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. The boundary of the outer limits of lands, shown on Baker Lake Airport Zoning Plan No. E.2670 dated August 24, 1988, is described as follows: COMMENCING at a point on the southeasterly boundary of Baker Lake Settlement, Plan 567 Yellowknife Land Titles Office, where it is intersected by the circumference of a circle having a radius of 4 000 metres and centered at the airport reference point as described in Part I of the schedule; THENCE southeasterly following the circumference of the said circle clockwise to its intersection with the northeasterly boundary of Baker Lake Settlement, Plan 567 Yellowknife Land Titles; THENCE southeasterly and southwesterly along the northeasterly and southeasterly limits of Plan 567 Yellowknife Land Titles Office, to its intersection with the northeasterly limit of Lot 1 000, Quad 66 A/8, Plan 1269 Yellowknife Land Titles; THENCE northwesterly along the northeasterly limit of Lot 1 000, Quad 66 A/8 to the most northerly corner of said Lot 1 000, Quad 66 A/8; THENCE southwesterly along the northwesterly limit of Lot 1 000, Quad 66 A/8 to the most westerly corner of said Lot 1 000, Quad 66 A/8; THENCE southeasterly along the southwesterly limit of Lot 1 000, Quad 66 A/8 to its intersection with the southeasterly boundary of Baker Lake Settlement, Plan 567 Yellowknife Land Titles; THENCE southwesterly along the southeasterly limit of Baker Lake Settlement, Plan 567 Yellowknife Land Titles, to the point of commencement.
