Historique : L'Office des eaux du territoire du Yukon fut institué en 1970, par la Loi sur les eaux intérieures du Nord. Responsabilités : L'Office des eaux du territoire du Yukon a pour fonctions de protéger les ressources hydrauliques du Yukon et d'en gérer l'utilisation. Les permis d'utilisation des eaux visent les ouvrages hydrauliques servant à l'exploitation minière en roche dure, l'utilisation des eaux par les municipalités dans certains cas, l'extraction de l'or, et leur utilisation pour d'autres fins industrielles. Les demandes de permis d'utilisations des eaux reçues par l'Office sont examinées au cours d'audiences publiques, annoncées dans la Gazette du Canada et dans les journaux locaux. Le requérant soumet son cas à l'Office lors de l'audience; les personnes qui ont au préalable signifié par écrit leur intention d'intervenir peuvent alors fournir leurs arguments en faveur ou contre la délivrance d'un permis au requérant. 1, record 5, French, - Office%20des%20eaux%20du%20territoire%20du%20Yukon
