• Sector-specific Forms and Proponent Guides

Yukon Environmental and Socio-economic Assessment Board (YESAB) has completed Sector-specific Forms and Guides for Forestry, and Land Disposition project proposals. These forms can be found on the YOR or through any YESAB office.

YESAB is now moving forward on developing sector-specific forms for placer mining and quartz exploration.

Sector-specific forms are in addiiton to Form 1, which is a generic project proposal form that will still be available when submitting a project for an evaluation under the Yukon Environmental and Socio-economic Assessment Act (YESAA).

The purpose of this initiative is to develop sector-specific forms and proponent guides that will increase the efficiency of the assesment process.
