E-Referrals

E-Referrals

E-Referrals is an online tool that automates the distribution and management of the referral processes. Referrals are sent to existing tenure holders, government agencies, and invited members of the public to solicit input on proposed natural resource authorizations or projects. For certain authorizations, it is a legal requirement to notify affected groups or individuals of the proposed authorization - E-Referrals facilitates this process.
