Canada Rocket Company - Jeremy Hansen Test Facility

Canada Rocket Company proposes to construct and operate a static rocket engine test facility at 20585 Nissouri Road, London, Ontario, on land leased from the Greater London International Airport Authority (GLIAA) within the London International Airport property. The site is bounded by Evelyn Drive to the north and Nissouri Road to the east, away from active airport operations.

Activities include phased hot-fire testing of rocket engine components, progressing to full-scale engine testing. Structures include an engine test stand and an office/shop building, with supporting parking, access roads, a septic field and a stormwater swale.

Site characterization: The site is vacant and has been used as cultivated agricultural land since at least 2002, with no buildings present. Agricultural land borders it to the south and west.

Required authority action: Approval by GLIAA to permit the project on airport lands.
