For the Sturgeon Upgrader air quality assessment, meteorological data for the year 2002 were used to define transport and dispersion parameters. The meteorological data from the 2002 period are compared to the longer term climate information to provide a measure of representativeness for this year. Meteorological characteristics vary with time (e.g., season and time of day) and location (e.g., height, terrain and land use). The CALMET meteorological pre-processing program was used to provide temporally and spatially varying meteorological parameters for the CALPUFF model. This appendix provides an overview of the meteorology and climate for the region as well as the technical details and options that were used for the application of the CALMET meteorological preprocessor to the Project study area. 5C.2 Study Domain The CALMET study domain adopted for the Project extends from approximately 53.3 degrees latitude in the south to 54.3 degrees latitude in the north, and from 113.9 degrees longitude in the west to 112.4 degrees longitude in the east, as shown in Figure 5C-1. The CALMET study domain includes the communities of Edmonton and Leduc towards the south of the domain, and the community of Westlock in the north.

The purpose and intended use of this rent study is to estimate the annual fair market rent for improved air side properties located at the Redmond Municipal Airport. The effective date of value is May 7, 2019. This rent study has been written to conform with the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) set forth by the Appraisal Standards Board of the Appraisal Foundation and adopted by the State of Oregon Appraiser Certification and Licensure Board. In the course of research, I have completed a physical inspection of the subject property, as well as a study of comparable rentals. Note that comparable ground leases located at airports outside of the Central Oregon region have not all been physically inspected by the appraiser; however, I have viewed Google maps of the individual airports.

  • Flying Together: the Southern Ontario Airport Network May 2017
    Flying Together: The Southern Ontario Airport Network May 2017 FLYING TOGETHER: THE SOUTHERN ONTARIO AIRPORT NETWORK 1 1 INTRODUCTION Southern Ontario is set to experience significant growth over the next three decades and is one of the fastest growing regions in North America. Not surprisingly, demand for air travel across the region will follow suit, rising to approximately 110 million passengers over the same timeframe. This growth presents significant opportunities for the region, local communities and their airports. As growth comes to Southern Ontario it is critical that we are ready for it. By working together, our region’s airports will be better placed to support local economic development, and in doing so increase the competitiveness of the region, the province and the country. Successful cities and regions around the world have reaped the benefits of a network approach to supporting air service needs, and by better using the available airport infrastructure in Southern Ontario, our region can benefit as well. This approach will ensure that Southern Ontario is well placed to keep the jobs and economic benefits of growth in air service demand in the region. 2 FLYING TOGETHER: THE SOUTHERN ONTARIO AIRPORT NETWORK 2 UNPRECEDENTED AIR TRAVEL DEMAND IS COMING TO SOUTHERN ONTARIO As the most densely populated and economically productive region in Canada, Southern Ontario is an engine of the Canadian economy. The region is Canada’s export powerhouse, accounting for 37 per cent of the Canadian economy overall, 39 per cent of the goods exports and 48 per cent of the services exports. 88 per cent of Southern Ontario’s The region is also home to several Fortune population lives in the metropolitan areas 500 companies, 28 universities and colleges, of the Greater Toronto Area, Hamilton, and an innovation corridor that features the second-largest concentration of tech Kingston, Kitchener-Waterloo, London, companies in North America.

  • 5. Airport Roles
    5. AIRPORT ROLES As part of GDOT’s prior airport system plans, criteria were identified to assign each airport in the state system to a role or level. In Georgia, airport levels generally reflect the type of users each airport accommodates and the facilities and services that the airport has in place. Levels also typically reflect the airport’s relative importance, as it relates to meeting the state’s transportation and economic needs and objectives. Further, airport levels are often matched to the socioeconomic and demographic characteristics of the communities the airport serves. This chapter of the update to the Georgia Statewide Airport System Plan (GSASP) provides the following: • Review of current airport roles. • Comparison of Georgia state airport levels/roles to roles for Georgia airports established by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in their ASSET Study or National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems (NPIAS). • Discussion of the need to consider change to current airport levels. • Recommendations for changes to current airport levels. Chapter 6, Airport Facility and Service Objectives, examines the ability of each airport to meet facility and service objectives that are applicable to each airport’s recommended level. 5.1 Factors That Influence Current Roles for Georgia Airports Levels for Georgia airports were established in the 2002 GSASP; the following factors were considered in the 2002 system plan to assign Georgia airports to a level: • Coverage: Percentage of the state contained in an airport service area. This factor included the establishment of a 30-minute service area for each airport via a geographic information system (GIS) drive time analysis.

  • Response to the KPMG Study: Pickering Lands Aviation Sector Analysis
    Response to the KPMG Study: Pickering Lands Aviation Sector Analysis Land Over Landings April 18, 2020 (rev. April 26, 2020) © Land Over Landings, 2020 1 Contents Overview and General Observations / 3 Extracts and Detailed Comments on the Reports / 5 The Supply and Demand Report / 6 The Contextual Bridge Report / 27 The Airport Type and Role Report / 28 The Revenue Generation and Economic Impact Assessment Report / 47 End Note / 49 2 Overview and General Observations In 2016, Transport Canada tasked KPMG to forecast capacity and demand in the southern Ontario airport system for the 20-year period 2016 to 2036. Following completion of the supply and demand study, KPMG conducted an additional three studies, which took so long to produce that some details of the December 2016 forecast report are now significantly out of date, and the later, newer sections diverge from the first report in tone, intent, and perspective. Because of the disjointed structure (four separate reports purporting to be one) and the extended timeline, a lot of material is repeated – and even contradicted – in subsequent reports. Regardless, the essential conclusion is clear, and is expressed frequently and unequivocally in the Supply and Demand Report (December 2016) – in fact, it is repeated no fewer than eighteen times, not counting five times in the executive summary. No additional airport in southern Ontario will be needed to meet 2036 demand. The report shows that, with modest capacity expansions of some existing airports, southern Ontario airport capacity will not only meet forecasted demand but will exceed it by a huge margin. The report further states that adequate runway and terminal building capacity exists within the system as a whole, with the introduction of high-speed rail services in the region.
