DyMar addresses the permitting challenges we face today by:
- Being creative in our thinking, integrating “tested” design solutions into the permit process.
- Working as a team player with all the stakeholders, delivering reliable approaches that appeal to regulators without compromising the Client’s interests.
- Staying engaged with the regulatory community by working closely with staff, boards and commissions to understand their issues, recognizing there are often conflicting and overlapping interests between the parties involved.
- Being keenly aware of the outside forces that can complicate the process, such as community, political and environmental interests, making sure the strategy chosen addresses their concerns and provides value in return.
- Managing the process by being out in front of the regulatory hurdles, always keeping a close eye on the schedule, quality of the product and completeness of a submission, making sure the Client is involved in every critical decision along the way.
- Delivering convincing presentations at hearings by way of clear and concise communications, colored and readable drawings and solid expert testimony, keying on the “end game” – securing the approval.
Processing Regulatory Permits is in the details of clear and concise applications.
