Integrated Project Review, Management and Technology (iPRMT)
Integrated Project Review, Management and Technology (iPRMT) is a multi-agency and jurisdictional initiative to achieve efficient and predictable environmental review for the pre-application stages of projects.
This ORA-led project is a part of Washington State’s response to the need to simplify and streamline environmental regulations. iPRMT will help achieve faster permit decisions, more sustainable environmental outcomes, and lays the groundwork for better long-term success with mitigation.
What is the tool?
The tool is an online “meeting room” where applicants for environmental permits can submit their project information for early review by regulators.
All documents supporting a project’s permit applications, such as drawings, descriptions and wetland delineations, etc, can be uploaded to the site.
Agency reviewers and applicants can communicate online and share up-to-date documents and decisions.
Who can use the tool?
Right now the tool is being tested by certain state and local agencies. As resources allow, it will be made available to a broader array of cities and counties and State Department of Transportation projects. Eventually, the tool will be available to the public.
Initiative Partners
Many agencies and jurisdictions have contributed to the development of iPRMT including: the City of Vancouver, Clark County, Kitsap County, Association of Washington Cities, Washington State Association of Counties, National Marine Fisheries Service, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Washington State Department of Ecology, Washington State Department of Fish and Wildlife, Washington State Department of Transportation, and the Governor’s Office of Regulatory Assistance.
