  • Airside Vehicle Operating Permit (AVOP) Student Study Manual
    Airside Vehicle Operating Permit (AVOP) Student Study Manual D Permit This manual applies to the following airports: • Inuvik • Fort Simpson • Fort Smith • Hay River • Norman Wells • Yellowknife March 2021 D AVOP Student Study Manual 1 Introduction The airside of an airport is a specialized working environment governed by specialized rules designed to prevent accidents, avoid property damage and minimize the risk of injury to all persons within it. This manual is a reference source to combine the applicable regulations, rules and procedures related to safe vehicle operation that experience has shown to be most important in the airside working environment. Persons using this manual are reminded that it has no legislative sanction. For purposes of interpreting and applying the law, the Acts and Regulations must be consulted. The requirements contained in this manual apply at the six Government of the Northwest Territories (GNWT) owned and operated Airports listed on the first page of this manual. The requirements are based on Acts, Regulations, Standards and Procedures for the safe and orderly operation of vehicles on Airport Movement Areas. Airports rely on mutual aid to provide the primary response for aircraft rescue and firefighting. In the case of uncontrolled airports, it is common for local off-airport fire, rescue, and police departments to provide the primary response to emergency situations on the airport. During emergency events the aerodrome may be closed, which would allow unrestricted airside access to responding agencies that do not possess an AVOP. This manual pertains specifically to a “D” Airside Vehicle Operating Permit (AVOP) that would allow the permit holder to operate a vehicle on ALL airport movement surfaces, unless restrictions are specified on the permit.

  • Northwest Territories Airport Improvements
    THE HONOURABLE WALLY SCHUMANN NO.: 35‐18(3) MINISTER OF INFRASTRUCTURE DATE: February 22, 2018 NWT Airport Improvements Mr. Speaker, airports are an integral component of our northern transportation infrastructure. Air travel contributes to social cohesion by enabling relatives and friends to stay connected. Air travel saves lives through our medevac system and facilitates business enterprises throughout our vast territory. Many communities rely on air travel to deliver essential goods. The Department of Infrastructure is committed to working with public and private sector partners to continuously maintain and improve airport infrastructure and operations. Today, I am pleased to report that a number of projects have been completed or are underway. Last year, our government successfully completed the replacement of the airfield lighting at the airports in Tuktoyaktuk and Norman Wells, thanks to over $3 million dollars in funding from Transport Canada under the Airport Capital Assistance Program and $200,000 dollars from our government. The previous airfield lighting dated back to the 1970s and was in need of replacement. Not only will the new lights be more effective for aircraft pilots, they’re also energy efficient LED lighting, which will help our government meet territorial and national commitments to lower greenhouse gas emissions. 1 Mr. Speaker, our government recently completed runway surface rehabilitations at the airports in Hay River, Inuvik, and Yellowknife. Federal and territorial funds were also used to construct new airports in Trout Lake in 2014 and Colville Lake in 2012 under the Building Canada Plan. These projects have increased the safety and capacity of air travel in the communities and the longer runways allow for the use of pressurized medevac aircraft.
