Clyde River Airport Zoning Regulations SCHEDULE
SCHEDULE (Sections 1 and 2)
In this schedule, all grid coordinates are in metres (m) and refer to the 1983 North American Datum, Zone 19, Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) projection. Grid coordinates have been computed using a combined average scale factor of 0.999600. In this schedule, all elevation values are in metres (m) and are based on the Canadian Geodetic Vertical Datum (CGVD28).
PART 1
Airport Reference Point The airport reference point, as shown on the zoning plan, is the geometric centre of the runway thresholds, at grid coordinates 7 820 133.667 N, 518 008.083 E (latitude 70°29′09″ N, longitude 68°31′01″ W). It is located on the centre line of the strip surface at a distance of 595.48 m from the end of the strip surface associated with runway 02-20, and its assigned elevation is 27.96 m above sea level.
PART 2
Approach Surfaces The approach surfaces, as shown on the zoning plan, are described as follows: (a) an imaginary inclined surface abutting the end of the strip surface associated with runway approach 02 and ascending, from an assigned elevation of 27.69 m above sea level, at a ratio of 1 m measured vertically to 30 m measured horizontally, to an imaginary horizontal line drawn at right angles to the projected centre line of the strip surface and distant 2 500 m measured horizontally from the end of the strip surface; the outer ends of the imaginary horizontal line being 295 m from the projected centre line and 83.33 m above the assigned elevation at the end of the strip surface associated with runway approach 02; and (b) an imaginary inclined surface abutting the end of the strip surface associated with runway approach 20 and ascending, from an assigned elevation of 28.70 m above sea level, at a ratio of 1 m measured vertically to 30 m measured horizontally, to an imaginary horizontal line drawn at right angles to the projected centre line of the strip surface and distant 2 500 m measured horizontally from the end of the strip surface; the outer ends of the imaginary horizontal line being 295 m from the projected centre line and 83.33 m above the assigned elevation at the end of the strip surface associated with runway approach 20.
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 elevation of the abutting end of the
Current to June 20, 2022 Last amended on April 2, 2013
Clyde River Airport Zoning Regulations SCHEDULE
strip surface, and increases at the constant ratios set out in this Part.
PART 3
Outer Surface The outer surface, as shown on the zoning plan, is an imaginary surface extending outward from the airport reference point to a radius of 4 000 m. It is situated at a constant elevation of 45 m above the airport reference point, but at 9 m above the ground when that elevation would place the outer surface at less than 9 m above the ground.
PART 4
Strip Surface 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 strip surface centre line between the strip surface thresholds is divided into segments, each of which has a slope that increases or decreases at the constant ratio set out in Column 7 of the table to this Part. The elevation of any point along a segment is calculated using the data set out in that table. The strip surface, as shown on the zoning plan, is an imaginary rectangular surface described as follows: the strip surface associated with runway 02-20 is 90 m in total width, being 45 m on either side of the centre line of the runway. The strip surface commences 60 m to the southwest of threshold 02 and ends 60 m to the northeast of threshold 20, having a total length of 1 190.96 m. The 02 end of the strip surface has an assigned elevation of 27.69 m and the 20 end of the strip surface has an assigned elevation of 28.70 m. The azimuth of the centre line of runway 02-20 is N 17°30′47″ E. Threshold 02 has grid coordinates of 7 819 623.21 N and 517 847.01 E, and threshold 20 has grid coordinates of 7 820 644.12 N and 518 169.16 E.

Transitional Surfaces Each transitional surface, as shown on the zoning plan, is an imaginary inclined surface ascending 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 surface, extending upward and outward from the lateral limits of the strip surface and its approach surfaces to the intersection with the outer surface. 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. The elevation of a point on the lower edge of a transitional surface abutting an approach surface is equal to the elevation of the nearest point on the centre line of the abutting approach surface.
PART 6
Limit of Area Containing Lands to Which These Regulations Apply The limit of the area containing the lands to which these Regulations apply is defined by a circle with a radius of 4 000 m centred on the airport reference point, as shown on the zoning plan.

Short Title 1 These Regulations may be cited as the Currency Exchange for Customs Valuation Regulations.
Interpretation 2 In these Regulations, Minister means the Minister of National Revenue.
Determination of Exchange Rate 3 For the purposes of the Customs Act, the rate of exchange used by the Minister for determining the value in Canadian dollars of a currency other than Canada shall be the rate prevailing on the date of direct shipment to Canada of the goods whose value in Canadian currency is to be determined. 4 For the purposes of the Special Import Measures Act, the rate of exchange used by the Minister for determining the value in Canadian dollars of a currency of a country other than Canada shall be the rate prevailing on the date of sale to a Canadian importer or the date of direct shipment to Canada, whichever date is applicable according to the Special Import Measures Regulations, of the goods whose value in Canadian currency is to be determined. 5 For the purposes of sections 3 and 4, rate prevailing on a date means, in respect of a currency of any country other than Canada, the rate of exchange for that currency, as communicated to the ports of entry by the Minister for that date. 6 Subject to sections 7 and 8, the rate of exchange for
any currency to be communicated by the Minister to the ports of entry shall be established on the basis of (a) the latest rate of exchange for that currency quoted to the Minister by the Bank of Canada;

the last consecutive flight duty period. SOR/2018-269, s. 13.
Delayed Reporting Time 700.52 (1) If an air operator advises a flight crew member of a delay in the member’s reporting time before the member leaves their suitable accommodation to report for duty, the duration of the flight duty period shall, for the purposes of determining the maximum flight duty period in accordance with section 700.28, be calculated starting from either the initial reporting time or the delayed reporting time, whichever results in the shorter period. (2) Despite subsection (1), the flight duty period shall
begin, if the delay in the reporting time (a) is less than four hours, at the delayed reporting time; or (b) is four hours or more but less than 10 hours, four hours after the initial reporting time.
(3) If the delay in the reporting time is 10 hours or more, the duration of the delay is considered to be a rest period if the air operator advises the flight crew member of the delay before they leave the suitable accommodation, and does not disturb their rest period before an agreed time.
(4) Unless the air operator and flight crew member agree on a time when the air operator may disturb the member’s rest period referred to in subsection (3), the air operator shall not interrupt the member’s rest period other than (a) during the 30-minute period before the time the member was initially scheduled to leave the suitable accommodation; or

ARTICLE XV
Benefits under the Canada Pension Plan If a person is entitled to a benefit solely through the application of the totalizing provisions of Chapter 1, the competent institution of Canada shall calculate the amount of benefit payable to that person in the following manner: (a) the earnings-related portion of the benefit shall be determined in conformity with the provisions of the Canada Pension Plan, exclusively on the basis of the pensionable earnings under that Plan; and (b) the flat-rate portion of the benefit shall be determined by multiplying: (i) the amount of the flat-rate portion of the benefit determined in conformity with the provisions of the Canada Pension Plan by (ii) the fraction which represents the ratio of the periods of contributions to the Canada Pension Plan in relation to the minimum qualifying period required under that Plan to establish entitlement to that benefit, but in no case shall that fraction exceed the value of one.
CHAPTER 3
Benefits Under the Legislation of Chile ARTICLE XVI
Determining Benefits 1 Persons who are affiliated with a Pensions Funds Administrator (Administradora de Fondos de Pensiones) shall finance their pensions in Chile with the balance accumulated in their individual capitalization account. If this is insufficient to provide pensions in an amount at least equal to the minimum pension guaranteed by the State, affiliated persons shall be entitled to totalize creditable periods in accordance with Chapter 1 in order to qualify for the minimum old age or disability pension benefit. Beneficiaries of a survivors pension shall also have this right. 2 For purposes of determining the fulfilment of the requirements specified in the Chilean legal provisions for an early retirement pension under the New System of Pensions, affiliated persons who have obtained a pension under the legislation of Canada shall be considered as pensioners under the social insurance plans administered by the Institute for Social Insurance Standardization. 3 Workers who have been affiliated with the New System of Pensions in Chile shall be allowed to make voluntary social insurance contributions to that System as self-employed
Current to June 20, 2022
Proclamation Giving Notice that the Agreement on Social Security Between the Government of Canada and the Government of the Republic of Chile Comes into Force on June 1, 1998
persons during the time they reside in Canada, subject, nonetheless, to compliance with the legislation of the latter country regarding the obligation to contribute. Workers who opt to exercise this right shall be exempt from the obligation to make the contribution intended for the financing of health benefits. 4 Contributors to the pension plans administered by the Institute for Social Insurance Standardization shall also be entitled to totalize periods in accordance with Chapter 1 in order to qualify for the pension benefits for which provision is made in the legislation applicable to them. 5 For the purpose of qualifying for pensions under the legislation that governs the social insurance plans administered by the Institute for Social Insurance Standardization, persons who are receiving pensions under the legislation of Canada shall be considered as current contributors to the social insurance plan that applies to them. 6 In the situations described in paragraphs 1 and 4 above, the competent institution shall determine the amount of the benefit as if all the creditable periods had been completed under its own legislation; for the purposes of the payment of the benefit, it shall calculate the part for which it is liable on the basis of the ratio between the creditable periods completed exclusively in Chile and the total creditable periods completed in both Parties. When the sum of the creditable periods in both Parties exceeds the period specified in the legislation of Chile for entitlement to a full pension, the excess periods shall be disregarded for the purposes of this calculation.
ARTICLE XVII
Health Benefits for Pensioners Persons who receive a pension under the legislation of Canada and who reside in Chile shall be entitled to enrol themselves in the health benefit plans of Chile under the same conditions as the pensioners of the latter country.
CHAPTER 4
Determining Disability ARTICLE XVIII
Medical Examinations 1 In determining disability, the competent institution of each Party shall carry out the evaluations required under the legislation that it applies. If a competent institution of a Party requests the competent institution of the other Party to conduct a medical examination of an applicant or beneficiary who resides in the territory of the latter Party, such examination shall be arranged or carried out by an institution of the latter Party.
