You can get an application form for this Approval
from any Regional or District
Office of Nova Scotia Environment and Climate Change. After it has been completed, it is
submitted to the local office of Department.
When the Department receives an application,
staff review it to see if all the required information is on the form,
and if the required supporting information has been provided. If
not, the application package is returned with an explanation as to what
is missing.
Once an application has been accepted by the
Department as complete, the application form and supporting documentation
undergo a technical review and evaluation. This is to decide
if the activity being proposed meets the minimum standards, policies,
guidelines, procedures and regulations that are administered by the Department.
If an applicant fails to meet these criteria,
staff will tell them which specific criteria have not been met to the
satisfaction of the Department.
If an applicant meets all the criteria, the Department
will issue an Approval. This Approval will list any terms and conditions
which the applicant must satisfy.
