Apply for approval of the premature construction of a plant requiring a permit

Read aloud

You have applied for the approval of a plant requiring a permit? Then you can also apply to the competent authority to start construction of the plant ahead of schedule.

The competent authority can revoke the approval at any time. In addition, the approval may be subject to conditions or granted conditionally if you still have to meet certain requirements. The conditions are intended to ensure that the plant can be dismantled if it is not approved. For this purpose, the competent authority may require a security from you. Collateral can be, for example, the deposit of money or securities as well as guarantees.
