FEDERAL REVIEW PROCESS. The proposed scope of the Project is the Project as described in the Project Description as provided by the Proponent. The CEA Agency has commenced a comprehensive study and will coordinate the federal process with the BCEAO, to ensure that the respective federal and provincial requirements are met in a manner consistent with the Canada-British Columbia Agreement for Environmental Assessment Cooperation. Annex I shows a Xxxxx chart of the federal review process. Annex II shows the key milestones and service standards for the EA as well as Aboriginal consultation. Annex IV shows the milestones and service standards for the regulatory review for each department. The CEA Agency will seek the participation of RAs and expert FAs to ensure that the EA process results in an efficient and effective EA that complies with the requirements of the CEAA and its regulations. During the EA process, RAs will confirm any regulatory or other s. 5 decisions required in relation to the Project that are triggers pursuant to the CEAA. As such, the Proponent is expected to submit all necessary applications to allow confirmation of triggers prior to the EA decision. Submission of the regulatory and technical information necessary for RAs to make their regulatory decision within the proposed timeframe is at the discretion of the Proponent. Although that information is not necessary for the EA decision, the Proponent is expected to submit it concurrent with the EIS, for the RAs to meet the regulatory timelines set out in this Agreement. If a department or agency determines that a regulatory decision or other trigger decision is not required, it may, upon request from the CEA Agency continue to participate as an expert FA should it be in possession of specialist or expert information or knowledge with respect to the Project. In the event that no triggers for the EA remain, the CEA Agency will terminate the EA.
FEDERAL REVIEW PROCESS. The proposed scope of the Project is the project described in the Project Description as provided by the Proponent. The CEA Agency will coordinate the federal EA review with provincial processes, to ensure that joint steps are undertaken wherever that can appropriately be done. Annex I shows a Xxxxx chart of the federal review process. Annex II shows the key milestones and service standards for the EA as well as Aboriginal consultation. Annex IV shows the milestones and service standards for the regulatory review for each department. The CEA Agency will work together with the RAs and the expert FAs to ensure that the EA process results in an efficient and effective EA that complies with the requirements of the former CEAA. The type of EA required is a screening. During the EA process, RAs will confirm any regulatory or other s. 5 decisions required in relation to the Project that are triggers pursuant to the former CEAA. As such, the Proponent is expected to submit all necessary applications to allow confirmation of triggers prior to the EA decision. Submission of the regulatory and technical information necessary for RAs to make their regulatory decision within the proposed timeframe is at the discretion of the Proponent. Although that information may not be necessary for the EA decision, the Proponent is expected to submit it concurrent with the EA report, for the RAs to meet the regulatory timelines set out in this Agreement. If a department or agency determines that it is no longer required to make a regulatory decision, it will end it’s participation in the EA as an RA, but may, upon request from an RA, continue to participate as an expert FA should it be in possession of specialist or expert information or knowledge with respect to the Project. In the event that no triggers for the EA remain, the RAs will terminate the EA.
FEDERAL REVIEW PROCESS. As proposed by the RAs, the preliminary scope of the Project includes: • All marine components of the project (wind turbines, offshore converter station, submarine transmission cables to mainland and Haida Gwaii, and submarine power lines between wind turbines); and, • Components which are on federal (PRPA) lands (onshore converter station, onshore transmission line, staging, operations, and maintenance infrastructure). The RAs will work together with the expert FAs to jointly meet their responsibilities under the CEAA. The RAs have determined that the type of EA required is a screening. The CEA Agency and the BC EAO will coordinate their respective review processes, to ensure that joint steps are undertaken wherever that can appropriately be done pursuant to the Canada- BC Environmental Assessment Cooperation Agreement. Annex I shows a Xxxxx chart of the federal review processes. Xxxxx XX shows the key milestones and service standards for the EA as well as Aboriginal engagement and consultation. Through the EA process, RAs will confirm any regulatory decisions required in relation to the Project that are included in the CEAA.
