Roof Replacement for NCC Residence in Gatineau Park
Official title: Roof Replacement for Residence in Gatineau Park
The National Capital Commission needs to replace a leaky cedar shingle roof on a residence in Gatineau Park. The project may require a Species at Risk Act permit, which would trigger a joint environmental assessment. No trees need to be cut and no excavation is required.
Why This Matters
This is a routine maintenance project on a single building in Gatineau Park. Unless you live nearby or use this specific residence, it won't affect your daily life. The Species at Risk review ensures any protected wildlife in the area is considered.
What Could Change
If approved, the NCC can proceed with the 8-week roof replacement. If a Species at Risk permit is required, additional conditions may be imposed to protect wildlife during construction.
Key Issues
- Is a Species at Risk Act permit required for this roof replacement?
- Are there any environmental concerns with the proposed construction approach?
