EPD to Enhance 'One-stop Shop' Service

The Environmental Protection Department (EPD) has extended the "one-stop-shop service" for the application of environmental licences and permits.

In addition to the existing service counters at the six EPD Local Control Offices (LCO), similar counters have been set up in three other EPD offices. All the counters will now accept applications for any environmental licences or permits.

"We started the service at the LCOs to collect licence and permit applications related to construction sites at the beginning of 1997," said EPD's Assistant Director (Local Control), Dr Mike Chiu.

"By providing more service counters and extending the scope of the service to cover all environmental licences and permits, the applicants will find it even more convenient to submit their applications," he said.

Applicants can visit or telephone any of the collection counters to obtain licence and permit application forms and information packages relating to all licensing requirements. They can also enquire about the status of their applications submitted.
