An Air Canada Rouge Airbus A319-100, registration C-GKOB performing flight RV-1622 from Toronto,ON (Canada) to Fort Lauderdale,FL (USA) with 133 passengers and 5 crew, was enroute when the crew received a "HYD G RSVR LO LVL" ECAM message and worked the related checklists. The crew thus shut the engine 1 hydraulic pump as well as power transfer unit (PTU) down and continued to Fort Lauderdale. During the descent to Fort Lauderdale the crew declared PAN PAN advising ATC they might need to extend the gear manually. On approach the crew reactivated the hydraulic pump and was able to extend the landing gear normally without any incident. The aircraft landed safely, vacated the runway and stopped on the adjacent taxiway to have emergency services inspect the aircraft. The aircraft subsequently proceeded to the apron on own power.

The Canadian TSB reported maintenance identified a leaking spoiler actuator, replaced the actuator, serviced the green hydraulic system and returned the aircraft to service after satisfactory tests.
