Regulatory Support

Environmental Compliance Approval support.

We help define the environmental permission path for projects and activities, prepare technical documentation and support submissions to the appropriate authorities.

From screening to submission ECA applications, EASR registrations, modification requests and supporting technical documents.

Clear guidance for environmental permission requirements.

Before starting a project or changing an activity, the applicable environmental permission path must be understood. Depending on the activity and risk level, a project may require an Environmental Compliance Approval (ECA), registration in the Environmental Activity and Sector Registry (EASR), a Permit to Take Water (PTTW), or another approval pathway.

Project Framing

WaterOClean helps identify which environmental permissions may apply before a project moves forward. This can include ECA requirements for air, noise, waste, sewage works or stormwater management works, as well as EASR registration or other permission requirements when applicable.

Regulatory Analysis

  • Review of applicable environmental requirements and project triggers.
  • Assessment of activities that may require an ECA, EASR registration or other approval.
  • Support in organizing requirements for air, waste, sewage works, stormwater and water-taking contexts.
  • Review of technical information needed to support the selected permission pathway.

MECP-Related Support

WaterOClean supports clients with documentation and technical coordination for environmental permission processes administered by the Ministry of the Environment, Conservation and Parks (MECP), including ECA applications, EASR registrations and modification requests.

Application Preparation

  • Preparation of engineering documentation required for filing.
  • Technical descriptions, process summaries and supporting calculations.
  • Coordination of drawings, reports and environmental information.

Common Project Changes

  • Increase in water or sewage treatment capacity.
  • Modification of production processes or equipment.
  • Changes to treatment systems for discharges, releases or emissions.
  • Modification or replacement of production equipment.

Authority Follow-Up

  • Support during exchanges with the ministry and related stakeholders.
  • Response support for information requests and technical clarifications.
  • Engineering services for ECA applications, EASR registrations and related environmental permissions.
