Environmental approvals are required for activities conducted by people, sites and equipment. Activities like training, operating equipment and hauling usually get licenses or certifications. Sites are facilities, buildings, gas stations, factories or wastewater/water treatment plants and usually get permits or registrations. Equipment can be tanks, boilers and measurement devices usually get permits or certifications. We divided approvals into groups to assist you in determining which approvals your activities, sites and equipment may require.
