To obtain the construction permit, the beneficiary is required to obtain an administrative act from the environmental protection authority. Many projects may enter the framing stage.
Likewise, the developer will be required to obtain a construction permit and an administrative act from the environmental protection authority before any works may be carried out. The procedures for obtaining such permits are also detailed.
The operation of the new units may require new or amended operating permits, such as water permits, waste permits etc. The procedures for obtaining these operating permits are described in section 4.3 below. The environmental permit must also be obtained or the existing one must be reviesed, if there were significant changes to the initial data brought by the project.
