SCHEDULE
(Sections 1, 2 and 6)

In this schedule, all grid coordinates are in metres (m) and refer to the 1983 North America Datum – GRS80 Ellipsoid (NAD83 Original), Zone 17, Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) projection. Grid coordinates have been computed using a combined average scale factor of 0.9998387.

In this schedule, all azimuths are measured clockwise and grid-referenced to 0 degrees north.

In this schedule, all elevation values are in metres (m) and are based on the Canadian Geodetic Vertical Datum of 1928 (CGVD28), 1978 Southern Ontario Adjustment.

PART 1

AIRPORT REFERENCE POINT

The airport reference point, as shown on Sheet 12 of the zoning plan, is a point that may be located as follows:

PART 2

APPROACH SURFACES

The elevation of an approach surface at any point is equal to the elevation of the nearest point on the centre line of that approach surface. The elevation of an approach surface centre line is calculated from the assigned elevation of the abutting end of the strip surface, and increases at the constant ratios set out in this Part.

The approach surfaces, as shown on Sheets 1, 2, 6, 7, 10 to 21, 25, 26 and 27 of the zoning plan, are surfaces abutting each end of the strip surfaces associated with runways 10R-28L, 10L-28R and 15-33. The approach surfaces are described as follows:

PART 3

OUTER SURFACE

The outer surface, as shown on Sheets 11, 12, 13, 18, 19 and 27 of the zoning plan, is an imaginary surface located at a constant elevation of 45 m above the assigned elevation of the airport reference point, but at 9 m above the surface of the ground when that elevation would place the outer surface at less than 9 m above the surface of the ground.

PART 4

STRIP SURFACES

The elevation of a strip surface at any point is equal to the elevation of the nearest point on the centre line of that strip surface. The elevation of the strip surface centre line between the strip surface end and the closest strip surface threshold is equal to the elevation of the strip surface end. The elevation of the strip surface centre line between the strip surface thresholds is calculated using a constant ratio between the elevations of the strip surface thresholds and the elevations of the points along the runway centre line that are set out in the tables to this Part.

The strip surfaces, as shown Sheets 12, 18 and 27 of the zoning plan, are imaginary rectangular surfaces described as follows:

(a) Strip Surface 10R-28L is the strip surface associated with runway 10R-28L and is 300 m in total width, being 150 m on either side of the centre line of the runway. The strip surface commences 60 m west of threshold 10R and ends 60 m east of threshold 28L, having a total length of 3 168.00 m. The 10R end of the strip surface has an assigned elevation of 231.60 m and the 28L end of the strip surface has an assigned elevation of 230.60 m. The azimuth of the centre line of runway 10R-28L is 88°28′00″. Threshold 10R has grid coordinates of 647 763.15 E and 4 865 078.69 N, and threshold 28L has grid coordinates of 650 809.57 E and 4 865 160.24 N. The points between thresholds along strip surface 10R-28L that determine the elevation of the strip surface centre line are set out in the following table:

(b) Strip Surface 10L-28R is the strip surface associated with runway 10L-28R and is 300 m in total width, being 150 m on either side of the centre line of the runway. The strip surface commences 60 m west of threshold 10L and ends 60 m east of threshold 28R, having a total length of 3 168.00 m. The 10L end of the strip surface has an assigned elevation of 228.10 m and the 28R end of the strip surface has an assigned elevation of 251.40 m.

PART 5

TRANSITIONAL SURFACES

The elevation of a point on the lower edge of a transitional surface abutting a strip surface is equal to the elevation of the nearest point on the centre line of the abutting strip surface.
