An environmental resource permit (ERP), approved variance, or exemption is ALWAYS required when impacting wetlands. Local building departments may accept this report as part of a complete building permit application, however this does not exempt you from the need for additional State/Federal permits or approvals should environmental resources be impacted in fact (please refer to "Question Detail” page Ql for more information).
