SUMMARY:MN Chamber Permitting Regional Meeting - St. Cloud 4/2/24
DESCRIPTION:Minnesota's environmental permitting process has long-been the topic of concern among business leaders\, with several notable economic development projects have stalled out or left the state due to reported permitting challenges. The Minnesota Chamber Foundation\, the nonpartisan research arm of the Minnesota Chamber of Commerce\, recently released a report providing recommendations to increase certainty throughout Minnesota's permitting system and provide actionable strategies to improve transparency and timeliness without lowering standards.\n\n \n\nThis six month analysis was completed in conjunction with consulting partners Barr Engineering\, the Policy Navigation Group and Squire Patton Boggs. The research examined Minnesota's air\, water and wetland permitting process\, along with environmental review. In addition to the analysis around timeliness and certainty\, the study compared Minnesota to neighboring and peer states\, reveals the economic impact of delays and uncovers the challenges impacting transparency. The report also identifies clear and actionable strategies to streamline permitting for new business investments.\n\n \n\nJoin us to learn the facts and data uncovered in the report\, and the Minnesota Chamber Foundation's recommendations to shape an environmental permitting process that can both protect the state's cherished natural resources and produce timely and reliable outcomes for businesses.\n\n\n\nDetails & Registration
