YESAB Assessment for Residential Development

Do you require a YESAB assessment to build a home on Settlement Land? 

Generally, a new project that takes place in Yukon will require an assessment if a permit or authorization, such as a building permit, is required.

Specifically, a project will require an assessment under the Yukon Environmental and Socio-economic Assessment Act (YESAA) if the following three conditions are met:

1) The project will be located in Yukon.

2) The project has not been assess yet or is located in an already developed neighbourhood.

3) You require work to be undertaken listed in Coloum 1: Activity of the YESAA regulation and none of the Exemptions listed in Coloum 2 are applicable.
