These Regulations may be cited as the Gander International Airport Zoning Regulations.SOR/95-560, s. 2
Interpretation
In these Regulations,airport means the Gander International Airport, in the District of Gander-Twillingate, in the Province of Newfoundland; (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 extending upward and outward from each end of a strip, along and at right angles to the projected centre line thereof, which approach surface is more particularly described in Part III of the schedule; (surface d’approche)Minister means the Minister of Transport; (ministre)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 IV 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 V of the schedule; (bande)transitional surface means an imaginary inclined plane extending upward and outward from the lateral limits of a strip and its approach surfaces, which transitional surface is more particularly described in Part VI of the schedule. (surface de transition)SOR/95-560, s. 3
For the purposes of these Regulations, the airport reference point is deemed to be 450 feet above sea level.
Application
These Regulations apply to all lands and lands under water, including public road allowances, adjacent to or in the vicinity of the airport, the outer limits of which are described in Part II of the schedule, except land that from time to time forms part of the airport.SOR/95-560, s. 5(F)
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 any of the following surfaces that project immediately over and above the surface of the land at that location, namely,the approach surfaces;the outer surface; orthe transitional surfaces.SOR/95-560, s. 5(F)
Aeronautical Facilities
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 fromany aircraft; orany facilities used to provide services relating to aeronautics.SOR/81-171, s. 1; SOR/95-560, s. 4
