Agency Approvals
Environmental approvals are a standard requirement for development approvals, and in many cases, is required to address complex requirements of municipal, provincial and federal legislation.
Azimuth is experienced in the evaluation of development applications and determining requirements for ultimately satisfying the specifications of the Provincial Planning Policy, municipal official plans, and in some cases the Lake Simcoe Protection Act, among others.
Because of a multi-tiered approvals approach in Ontario, municipalities rely on our professional assessment to provide an opinion regarding compliance. Our firm has extensive experience completing necessary studies to facilitate approvals. Examples include:
- Environmental Impact Studies / Natural Heritage Evaluations
- Environmental Clearances
- Confirmation of Regulatory Compliance
- Records of Site Condition
- DFO Request for Review and DFO Request for Authorization
- Endangered Species Act and Species at Risk permitting
