Origin On February 22, 2018, CES Committee received presentation; CES-2-2018-DEL-C entitled “Orgne Overview” from Rob Giguere, Chief Operating Officer and Deputy CEO of Ornge. In his presentation, Mr. Giguere made reference to the coverage of helipad locations available for Ornge Helicopter use and that Orgne can provide expert guidance in the development of new helipads. The following report provides some explanation and illustrations of landing facilities identifying the level of coverage available and support for the potential consideration of additional coverage with future growth requirements. Analysis In his presentation, Mr. Giguere made reference to the supply of “12 aerodromes within 60 nautical miles of Muskoka” and to the availability of “20 helipads.” Following the presentation, a list of ‘usable’ and ‘not usable’ sites was clarified with Ornge, and the attached two maps and a list were prepared showing landing sites within 60 nautical miles of Muskoka and within The District Municipality of Muskoka (District), see Appendices “I”, “II” and “III”. Interestingly, there are seven (7) Transport Canada registered aerodromes and one (1) Transport Canada registered helipad within the District that Ornge does not normally use because they are privately owned and operated, and seasonal in nature.

In short, we conclude that the Collingwood Regional Airport is fulfilling its intended function as an economic engine and is attracting business expansion proposals that would deliver very substantial economic benefit to the South Georgian Bay region. Approval of the current wpd Turbine Project would be fatal to business expansion, such that, on balance, the offending turbines should be moved or wpd’s Renewable Energy Act Application denied.
