What it does

This program ensures that high quality assessments of designated projects are conducted and completed in a timely and predictable way, thereby preventing or reducing adverse effects while supporting economic growth. The Agency will work with other jurisdictions to avoid duplication of assessment activities to increase efficiency and provide certainty for all participants in the process. The Agency will promote, monitor, and verify compliance with the Impact Assessment Act. The Agency will ensure that the assessment process provides for the meaningful participation of the public and Indigenous groups. The Agency will consult with Indigenous groups during the assessment process to assess how the proposed project may adversely impact potential or established Indigenous or treaty rights and related interests, and to find ways to avoid or minimize these adverse impacts. This program uses funding from the following transfer payments: the Participant Funding Program, Policy Dialogue, Indigenous Capacity Support, and the James Bay and Northern Quebec Agreement.
