1.05 Aerial work zone (AWZ)
       (1) Subject to subsection (3), an aerial work zone (an AWZ) means the area of land or water:
(a) beneath an aerial work operation in which:
           (i) an aircraft is flown below the height, and closer than the distance, specified in paragraph 91.265 (2) (a) or (3) (a); and
           (ii) none of the circumstances mentioned in subregulation 91.265 (4) applies; and
(b) within which there are, or are likely to be, one or more of the following:

           (iv) livestock not associated with the operation; and
(c) where one or more of the following events might occur:

Note   The fact of an operation occurring above an area may attract persons, some in vehicles or vessels, to enter the area as spectators unless they are properly prohibited. Such an area may then become an AWZ requiring such persons and vehicles or vessels to be properly prohibited from entering.
       (2) For this instrument, an area may be an AWZ despite the fact that a person has total
