Construction of an Airport Maintenance Hangar at the Halifax International Airport

The Proponent, Gateway Facilities ULC, intends to construct a new Apron and Hangar at 645 Pratt & Whitney Drive, at the Halifax Stanfield International Airport in Goffs, Nova Scotia.  The proposed new apron and hangar facility will serve as an aircraft maintenance facility that will be used by Gateway Facilities and for additional clients.  The proposed project will include Phase 1 which will be an asphalt apron extension that will include removing soil to bedrock to 750 mm below grade, and placement of asphalt concrete (heavy to accommodate parking of aircraft up to the size of a 737).  The asphalt mixes and densities comply with specifications by the Nova Scotia Department of Transportation and Infrastructure Renewal.  Proposed Class 5 culverts and inverts are planned to control flow of surface water to existing ditches adjacent to the project area.  Phase 2 of the proposed project will include the construction of a new hangar building that will measure approximately 23,950ft2 or 2,225m2 in size. The proposed new apron and hangar will be in the center of the parcel of land currently leased from the Halifax International Airport Authority and will be directly adjacent to the existing Gateway Facilities hangar. 

This project was previously posted and assessed by the Halifax International Airport Authority (HIAA) on May 21, 2020. CIAR # 80706 (Gateway Facilities ULC Apron Expansion and Hangar Construction).  HIAA posted their determination on CIAR on October 29, 2024.
