PERMISSIONS AND LICENCES
Permissions
Permits
For resource extraction programs (for example, timber and gravel operations) and depositing solid waste on Reserve land, permits are required. Application packages are available from the Lands Department. Permits are reviewed by both the Land
Management Committee (for ownership and royalty issues)
and the Environment and Natural Resources Committee (for
environmental impacts and policies), and possibly Indian and
Northern Affairs Canada (INAC) as well. A Band Council
resolution is required for INAC approval, and a Canadian
Environmental Assessment Application screening is
usually required.
Species at Risk
Access may be limited in areas that have ecological constraints. Please contact the Environment Department for information regarding access to known or suspected sensitive areas.
Access to Reserve Lands and Buildings
It is good practice to obtain prior approval for accessing Reserve land other than on roadways, public buildings, and by invitation. Contact the Land Department for approval. |
