Yesterday, the Government improved the procedure to obtain permits for special water use by adopting amendments developed by the BRDO Office together with the State Agency of Water Resources and the Ministry of Ecology and Natural Resources of Ukraine. From now on, business owners will spend twice less time and save a lot of money on it. The expenses of entrepreneurs will be six times less, because they will have to pay 23 thousand hryvnas instead of 150 thousand hryvnas. In addition, now they do not go anywhere to obtain permits, since it can be obtained in the territorial units of the State Agency of Water Resources.
Moreover, the need to obtain individual approvals from the Ministry of Health and the State Service on Geology and Mineral Resources personally by applicants was canceled, the procedure to extend the term of special water use was simplified and an application form, which will contain an exclusive list of documents submitted to obtain permits, was approved.
