10 DEC 15 AIP CANADA (ICAO) SUPPLEMENT 46/15 AIRSPACE AND COMMUNICATIONS SOUTH ATHABASCA OIL SANDS, ALBERTA (Replaces AIC 29/15) NAV CANADA, the country's provider of civil air navigation services, completed an aeronautical study to review the communication and airspace requirements in the area south of Fort McMurray known as the South Athabasca Oil Sands. The area in question encompasses four aerodromes in relatively close proximity to each other Primrose, Kirby Lake, Christina Lake, and Conklin. There has been a substantial increase in aircraft traffic at these aerodromes, primarily in support of oil sands mining operations. The study concludes that the establishment of controlled, transponder mandatory airspace with direct controller-pilot communications (DCPC) is required to enhance safety and efficiency of instrument flight rules (IFR) operations. In addition, the establishment of a common air traffic frequency (ATF) for the area will enhance communication and situational awareness for pilots operating visual flight rules (VFR) and IFR. Following are the specific study recommendations (See map sketch below): Establish control area extension (CAE) Class E controlled airspace mandatory transponder Mode C required from 3,000 feet above sea level (ASL) in the area bounded by CYR223 on the north with a tangent north-west to the Fort McMurray control area extension, the Alberta/Saskatchewan border on the east, CYR204 (Cold Lake Air Weapons Range) on the south and the very high frequency (VHF) airway V112 on the west. A portion of the CAE eastern boundary extends to the east 12 nautical miles (NM) with a floor of 3,500 feet ASL; Establish Class E control zones (CZs) mandatory transponder Mode C required to 3,000 feet ASL, 5 NM in radius for the private oil sands aerodromes Primrose, Kirby Lake, Christina Lake, and Conklin (Leismer); Establish transition area (TA) Class E, Mode C airspace to the west and east of the Christina Lake CZ with floors of 2,900 feet ASL and 2,700 feet ASL respectively and to the west of the Kirby Lake CZ with a floor of 2,900 feet ASL; Install peripheral station (PAL) communications to enable DCPC for the area including on the ground at the 4 private oil sands aerodromes; Publish a common area ATF for pilot-to-pilot communication in the same area as the newly established Class E airspace, including a corridor north to the Fort McMurray CZ, from the surface to below 7,000 feet ASL; and In the area immediately to the west of the Cold Lake military terminal control area (MTCA), eliminate several slivers of uncontrolled airspace by moving the Class B airspace boundary east to make it contiguous with the Cold Lake MTCA boundary. These changes took effect 10 December 2015 at 0901 Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). Refer to this AIP Supplement until the VFR Navigation Charts (VNC) AIR 5023 Lake Athabasca and AIR 5015 Edmonton are amended in the spring 2016.

24 JUL 14 AIP CANADA (ICAO) SUPPLEMENT 51/14 ONTARIO REGION LASER PROJECTION IN THE VICINITY OF EGBERT, ONTARIO MAY 31, 2014 TO MAY 31, 2019 (Replaces AIP Supplement 25/09) In April 2009, Environment Canada s Centre for Atmospheric Research Experiments began a multi-year study using a laser located on the grounds of the Centre for Atmospheric Research Experiments at coordinates 44 13' 55" N 79 46' 42" W. The laser propagates a stationary vertical green beam, which is not visible during daylight. It projects day and night when there is no precipitation. Several measures have been taken to mitigate risks to aviation. The beam is being significantly diverged to reduce the block of altitude that presents a hazard to aircraft crew and passengers. A radar interlock system has been designed to shut off the laser when an aircraft enters the nominal hazard zone. In addition, the laser cannot propagate a beam if the radar is not transmitting. In the event of a simultaneous failure of both protection systems, an aircraft overflying the narrow beam and a crew member or passenger looking straight down at the light source, there would be risk of injury to the eyes up to 4 000 ft above the laser source (5 000 ft ASL). Flash blindness could occur up to 7 000 ft (8 000 ft ASL); cockpit and cabin illumination could occur beyond this distance. Pilots are reminded that Canadian Aviation Regulation 601.22(1) stipulates: No pilot-in-command shall intentionally operate an aircraft into a beam from a directed bright light source or into an area where a directed bright light source is projected, unless the aircraft is operated in accordance with an authorization issued by the Minister.

3 APR 14 AIP CANADA (ICAO) SUPPLEMENT 24/14 PACIFIC REGION LASER OPERATION IN THE VICINITY OF PITT MEADOWS, BRITISH COLUMBIA (Replaces AIP Supplement 29/12) A vertical pointing laser will be operating in the Pitt Meadows area of British Columbia until 31 March 2016. This laser is controlled by a radar interlock system, known as light detection and ranging (LIDAR), which automatically shuts off the laser if an aircraft operates close to the beam. The laser, a stationary yellow laser, is located at 49 17 15 N 122 34 22 W, approximately 7 nautical miles (NM) north-northeast of the Pitt Meadows Airport. The following caution is issued for this laser: The laser light beam may be injurious to pilots/aircrew and passengers within 16 000 ft of the light source. Flash blindness could occur up to 23 000 ft from the light source and cockpit illumination may occur beyond this distance. The laser beam will be activated periodically in clear sky conditions only from sunset to sunrise. Any questions regarding the laser may be directed to the Pacific Region at 604-666-8333. Martin J. Eley Director General Civil Aviation
3 APR 14 AIP CANADA (ICAO) SUPPLEMENT 21/14 TERMINAL CONTROL AREA AND CONTROL ZONE QUÉBEC JEAN LESAGE INTL, QUEBEC NAV CANADA, the country's provider of civil air navigation services, conducted an aeronautical study that reviewed the airspace classification and structure of the terminal control area (TCA) and control zone (CZ) at the Quebec/Jean Lesage International Airport. The study concluded that the volume and density of traffic within Quebec s TCA and CZ warrant a change from Class D to Class C airspace. In addition, to ensure the proper air traffic control (ATC) communication and surveillance coverage required for Class C airspace provided within the TCA, the floors for some sectors of the TCA will be raised. This will also help reduce compaction of visual flight rules (VFR) traffic for a few airports located under these sectors (see map sketch below). These changes took effect 03 April 2014 at 0901 Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). The appropriate aeronautical publications will be amended, including the Québec VFR Terminal Procedures Charts in the Canada Flight Supplement (CFS) and the Montreal VNC (AIR 5002) 25 th Edition, which will be available early May.

28 JUN 12 AIP CANADA (ICAO) SUPPLEMENT 31/12 PACIFIC REGION LASER OPERATION IN WHISTLER, BRITISH COLUMBIA (Replaces AIP Supplement 25/10) A vertical pointing laser will be operating in the Whistler area of British Columbia until 31 March 2017. This laser is controlled by a radar interlock system, known as light detection and ranging (LIDAR), which automatically shuts off the laser if an aircraft operates close to the beam. The laser, a stationary green laser, is located at 50 07 45 N 122 57 16 W, approximately 0.5 nautical miles (NM) north of the Whistler Hospital Heliport. The following caution is issued for this laser: This laser light beam may be injurious to pilots/aircrew and passengers within 4 000 ft of the light source. Flash blindness could occur up to 7 000 ft from the light source and cockpit illumination may occur beyond this distance. The laser beam will be activated periodically in non-precipitation conditions only. Any questions regarding the laser may be directed to the Pacific Region at 604-666-8333. Martin J. Eley Director General Civil Aviation

22 SEP 11 AIP CANADA (ICAO) SUPPLEMENT 46/11 VFR CHART MAXIMUM ELEVATION FIGURE NAV CANADA is in the process of updating all visual flight rules (VFR) navigational (VNC) and VFR terminal area (VTA) charts with digital terrain layers. As a result of this, the Maximum Elevation Figure (MEF) values may be inconsistent within chart overlap areas depicted on the VNC series. This issue will be resolved through the completion of all digital terrain layer updates. For cases in which MEF inconsistencies are present, the MEF values depicted on the VNC with the latest aeronautical information date should be used. For more information regarding the importance and appropriate use of the MEF, please refer to AIC 26/11. For a current List of Available Charts that have been released with digital terrain layers, please see the NAV CANADA website: <www.navcanada.ca> Publications Aeronautical Information Products Aeronautical Charts VFR Navigation Charts (VNC) List of Available Charts Rudy Kellar Vice President, Operations
17 DEC 09 AIP CANADA (ICAO) SUPPLEMENT 50/09 LASER PROJECTION IN THE WOLFVILLE, NOVA SCOTIA AREA (ACADIA UNIVERSITY) 15 NOVEMBER 2009 TO 15 NOVEMBER 2014 1.0 General In November 2009, Environment Canada s Centre for Atmospheric Research Experiments began a five-year study using a vertically pointing green laser located on the grounds of Acadia University (Wolfville, Nova Scotia) at coordinates 45 05 14.96 N 64 22 8.43 W (approximately 12.2 NM northeast of the Waterville/Kings Co Muni aerodrome [CCW3]). 2.0 Laser Description The semi-autonomous laser system projects a stationary vertical green beam, which is not visible during daylight. The laser system is operational during the day and night when there is no precipitation. 3.0 Risk Mitigation Measures Several control measures have been taken to mitigate the risks to aviation safety as follows: The laser beam has been significantly diverged to reduce the block of altitude that presents a hazard to aircraft crew and passengers. A sensing device in the form of a radar interlock system has been designed to shut off the laser when an aircraft enters the hazard zone (prior to actually penetrating the laser beam). The radar communicates with the operator console to let it know it is on. The laser cannot project a beam if the radar is not transmitting (both systems operate on the same power source). A video surveillance system has been placed inside and outside the vehicle that will be used for routine monitoring of the radar. 4.0 Canadian Aviation Regulation (CAR) 601.22(1) Requirement for Pilot-incommand Pilots are reminded that CAR 601.22(1) stipulates the following: No pilot-in-command shall intentionally operate an aircraft into a beam from a directed bright light source or into an area where a directed bright light source is projected, unless the aircraft is operated in accordance with an authorization issued by the Minister.
