The Department of Environment and Climate Change is providing an online option for the public to pay the fee for registering a project for environmental assessment registration.

Undertakings are subject to a fee structure in accordance with the current Cost Recovery Policy of the Department, found here.

The fee for registration is $400 plus HST (non-profit organizations are exempt). In addition, undertakings with an estimated capital cost greater than $5 million are subject to a schedule of fees, outlined in the Cost Recovery Policy to offset the Department’s cost of conducting the assessment.

The public can still pay the environmental assessment registration fee by cheque or money order to the Newfoundland Exchequer or pay by credit card by calling the Central Cashier’s Office at 709-729-3042.
