Preparing a Project Description

Regulations Designating Physical Activities require that a project description be submitted in order to determine whether a federal environmental assessment is required for a designated project.

The Guide to Preparing a Description of a Designated Project [PDF - 362 KB] specifies the information that is required in a project description to:

• conform with the requirements set out in the Prescribed Information for a Description of a Designated Project Regulations;
• inform the Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency of the possibility that the carrying out of the designated project may cause adverse environmental effects;
• determine whether an environmental assessment is required under Canadian Environmental Assessment Act, 2012.
