Niagara Escarpment Commission
The Niagara Escarpment Commission (NEC) is a statutory body operating independently from the Ontario Government's Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry. Its primary mandate is to develop, interpret, and apply policies under the Niagara Escarpment Plan to protect and enhance the unique environmental and landscape features of Ontario's Niagara Escarpment.
The NEC oversees the issuance of development permits, which assess the impact of proposed developments on the Escarpment's natural environment and scenic landscape. By requiring these permits for certain activities, the NEC aims to ensure the protection and health of the Escarpment's ecological and historical attributes.
