We believe this clause reflects section 12.4.1.1 of the Umbrella Final Agreement, which states that “Projects and significant changes to Existing Projects” are “subject to the development assessment process”.

A similar provision exists in the Nunavut Planning and Project Assessment Act in section 145, and in environmental assessment legislation in British Columbia, in subsection 18(6) of the Environmental Assessment Act of British Columbia, so we think it is consistent with the UFA.
