Seamless permitting

Let us handle the paperwork

Federal Permits

We liaise with federal agencies like Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) and Transport Canada to ensure compliance with marine navigation and aquatic habitat regulations.

Provincial Permits

Working with the Ministry of Water, Land and Resource Stewardship, we address zoning, water use, and shoreline protection requirements across BC.

Municipal Permits

We coordinate with local municipalities and regional districts throughout the Okanagan to meet planning bylaws and development guidelines, including engineering and environmental assessments when required.

Environmental Impact Assessments

Our team is equipped to conduct Environmental Impact Assessments (EIAs) that meet provincial and federal requirements. We identify potential risks early, ensure regulatory compliance, and help streamline the approval process for residential and commercial waterfront developments.

Protecting sensitive shorelines

Dock construction in the Okanagan must account for designated fish habitat zones—like Black, Red, and Yellow areas—each with its own environmental restrictions. We assess your property’s classification and ensure your project meets all ecological guidelines while protecting local fish populations.
