As of 2023, Agriculture and Agri--Food Canada requires staff members to obtain signed Permission to Access from landowners. Even if verbal permission is provided, staff members are accompanied, or urgent risk is involved, AAFC staff are required by our managers to first obtain a signed form before entering a field. The following is intended to help obtain signed forms in a timely manner to support ongoing IPM research across the Peace River region.
Our IPM program appreciates your efforts to help US help you!
- Step 1: Make a list of Legal Land Descriptions of fields our staff are allowed to access.
- Step 2: Download the PDF copy of the blank permission form here.
- Step 3: Fill in form and save it. Please be sure to initial AND sign the form.
- Step 4: Please email the signed form to jennifer.otani@agr.gc.ca
- Step 5: Please watch for follow-up email messages. Our staff needs to confirm your contact number so we can provide updates to you. Cell numbers able to receive text messages are ideal!
